I'm using Getif on NT4 Sp6

I think I now what might be wrong, I checked the registry on one NT box
again and found another performance agent entry for the Arc backup server, I
removed it and it works now....

Now for the other 25, will keep you posted with my findings...

What are you using to walk the tree?  GETIF or snmpwalk?  Not that
it matters, but this sounds awfully bizarre.  It sounds like the specific
MIB is not loading if you can walk part of the tree.  I would approach
your situation as if snmp is not running, and go back to the beginning
and start from snmp scratch on one of the servers that is not running
snmp correctly.  What are you using to query the boxes?  *nix, NT, 
or other?  Any more information could be helpful, then again, maybe
not.

OK, I would like you all to know this was my last resort...

I have successfully installed SNMP on 28 servers with SP6a, I've only got 2
working with MRTG to give me graphs on HDD MEM and CPU.  

On the others the SNMP works fine, but it does not seem to load the Mib's
for the Performance Monitors.  I have used and exhausted Perfm.zip and
SNMP4NT, I have reinstalled, deleted all the perf* and Mib* files and
reinstalled them, I have also checked the registry.  

I still get SNMP responses but not with the HDD,CPU or MEM info.  If I walk
the MIB tree I get a lot of info I can't use...I don't know what else to do,
these are all identical servers all running Lotus Notes and nothing else, is
there something I am missing?  All the documents I have found all refer to
how to get SNMP to run if it doesn't, but there are none explaining what
could be wrong if it runs but not with the counters that Perfm.zip and
SNMP4NT supply...

Thanks in advance...
