I think that Netview NT works better on NT Server 4 SP3 or 5 (based on my
personal experience only... ).
For the Netview Account Problem read carefully the release notes..
Do you have the correct rights (Administrator) during the setup process
..??
Try to create the Netview User before the setup (with correct ADVANCED user
rights ...) and then install with
command ==> setup -nu
For the second problem look at the snmp agent configuration on NT and in
the file \winnt\system32\drivers\etc\services
to check if the snmp port is free..
Then check the Sarvice Pack Level. SP3 and 5 are Ok . SP 4 seems to have
some problems with snmp ...
Try to remove "clean" snmp service, reinstall and re-apply SP3 or 5.
bye

Subject: TME10 NetView V5.1 or V5.1.1
Hi,
I'm Matthias and new in our netview user club
and need some information or support of somebody.
I have problems with the installation of tme10netview v5.1.1 on
a windows-nt 4.0 workstation. My gole is to install a netview server on
a nt-workstation. Some error massages appears till the installation steps.
First error: the setup wont to create a user account named NetView on my
workstation,
that dosn't work. The error massage 'Could not add the account NetView to
the Administrators group'
appears with returne code 2220.
After the installation there is a user NetView defined and i can modify the
user to the administrators group
and availability to start of netview services.
Second error: though availability of SNMP services on my workstation after
the installation of netview i received
the warning massage 'The SNMP Service on this system failed to respond to
an SNMP test request using a community string of 'public'... Press OK to
continue installation ... and so on.
The community name on my workstation is 'public' and I can reach my
workstation with a other
Netview-Server and can read the SNMP MIB variable of this workstation.
That can not be the reason of error.
The installation process of netview finaly hang and the installation of
netview software is not complete.
Question, whats rong? Need Netview Server for NT a windows-NT Server
software and not
windows-NT for workstation? What about error during the NetView user
account?
sorry for my simple english, I hope you will anderstand me.
*** nice weekend for all ***
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Yours Sincerely
