I just did an install of 5.2.1.2-1 and it worked as expected. I only selected options 1 and 4. It did not install snmpd.exe or snmptrapd.exe to the bin folder, and it did not create the Start menu items to register and unregister the services. > I installed to a non-default location (D:\Omneon\usr), left options 1 and > 4 checked, but unchecked 2 and 3.

Try this: snmpget -v 1 -c public localhost sysDescr.0 The Microsoft agent will respond in a format similar to: Hardware: x86 Family 15 Model 12 Stepping 0 AT/AT COMPATIBLE - Software: Windows 2000 Version 5.0 (Build 2195 Uniprocessor Free) The Net-SNMP agent would normally respond in a format similar to: Windows hostname 5.0.2195 Service Pack 4 2000 Server x86 Family 15 Model 12 Stepping 0 Check the task list. If you see snmpd.exe then Net-SNMP's agent is running. If you see snmp.exe, then Microsoft's agent is running.
