BadOIDs Collection on UNIX

[Don Davis <don-n-darla@worldnet.att.net>]

Here is a utility that I wrote that can find all of your "bad OIDs".
That is, OIDs that are not registered in /usr/OV/conf/C/oid_to_sym file.

This will find all of your SNMP agents that display as plain green
squares.
This provides a similar function on UNIX that is available on NetView
for NT.

1. getOIDs : script file that does the work
2. oid.format : config file for nvdbformat command that is called by the
getOIDs script
3. getinfo.reg : Application Registration File that puts getOIDs on the
Tools Menu.

The getOIDs file and the oid.format file should be placed in the root
"/" directory.
Be sure to modify the getOIDs script if you put them somewhere else.
The getinfo.reg file goes in /usr/OV/registration/C directory.

The getinfo.reg file also has a "get traps" action clause that will get
all of the traps for
the selected node from trapd.log and display them in an xnmappmon window
when
getTraps is selected from the Tools Menu.
