1) add the entries in oid_to_type and oid_to_sym (as you've done)
2) Add the entries to ovw_fields and snmp_fields (as you've done)
3) Run ovw_fields.exe
4) Restart the console

You should now see the entries at the bottom of the drop down list for
the vendor and agent.

Question: Is editing the ovw_fields and snmp_fields the proper way to
add vendors/agents? I read that you're supposed to create your own Field
Registration Files rather than editing the standard Netview FRF's. If so
how do you add entries to an enumeration data type as is required?

Regards,
 Matt Moore
