ok, on line 1 I changed the PPEVENTS-MIB to PP-EVENTS-MIB, issued the
same command, and still get the same results.
Does there have to be a MODULE-IDENTITY statement in the MIB perhaps for
snmptranslate to find it? The smithy tool used to create this MIB in
SNMPv2 format didn't include such a statement, I wonder if that's the
problem?

BTW, when I issue the same command on other MIBS found in
$HOME/.snmp/mibs, such as the following:

snmptranslate TUNNEL-MIB::tunnelMIBObjects 

it works.

That's because the MIB is called "PPEVENTS-MIB",
not "PP-EVENTS-MIB".

You know that the two are meant to refer to the same thing.
_I_ know that the two are meant to refer to the same thing.
But computers are thick, and assume that they're completely different!
