I have got it.
Basically, problems with Web Based Event Browser is still there, and I don't
know why. I will have to deal with support.
I thing that is a support issue, for sure.
Regarding, OID to doted number to doted name translation for VARBINDS in Web
Based Event Browser,
This is what I did.
ASN .1 for that mib file was written for SNMP V2.
I have compiled the ASN .1 MIB file using Web/Java based MIB Compiler "Web
Based MIB Loader".
--it didn't work. The trap VARBINDS in Web Based Event Browser were not
translated to names.
I have compiled the ASN .1 MIB file using xnmloadmib2.
--again, didn't work. No trap VARBINDS in Web Based Event Browser
translated to names.
I had to redo the ASN .1 file and I removed all V2 stuff so I made from it
ASN .1 for V1 and used Good Old xnmloadmib to compile it. I got it compiled
to SNMPMIB.BIN.
--Yes, it worked. WEB BASED EVENT BROWSER started converting VARBINDS
from
doted number to doted names.
Based on this, Web Event Browser reads SNMPMIB.BIN, and If you want to se
VARBINDS from doted numbers to names, you must compile you MIB file to
SNMPMIB.BIN.

I am not certain you two guys are talking abut the same problem.
IY28934 is for a core in RECTRAP when it gets an unknown trap. That's
fixed in 7.1.2 That's ONE reason why the Java Event Browser might just
stop, but perhaps not the only one. But it has nothing to do with MIB
OIDs.
As for the java Event Browser not showing MIB OIDs translated from dotted
numbers to dotted names, as they are in the UNIX GUI, I am not completely
certain that I understand what the issue is, but I suspect that your
expectations are mistaken. The java MIB loader/browser is not connected
in any way to trapd (nor to anything else that I am aware of). The MIB
file that trapd loads is the V1 MIB file snmpmib.bin, both in UNIX and
NT. So if your MIB is not in that database, then the Details panel of the
java Event Browser cannot shows the OID as a translated string. In
effect, this is no different than with the original V1/V2 loader,
xnmloadmib2, and nvevents. Loading a MIB into that db does allow trapd to
format the OID either. So this problem is a design issue. And perhaps
someday the design will be changed. If you are unhappy with that lack of
capability, then I suggest that you call Support and explain it to them,
so that they might take an enhancement request to speed up the process.
I would also call Support if your java Event Browser stops but the reason
does not appear to be a core in rectrap, or if the core persists in 7.1.2
or later.
If they don't know about it, it probably won't get fixed.

Still the same thing.
7.1.1 or 7.1.2. Maybe they are aware of the problem, but not sure what
the
cause is.
Personally, I prefer Unix X based GUI, rather then that Java interface.
Unfortunately, they are heading toward Java, and maybe, one day
everything will be written in Java.
