Hi all,

Sorry for the off-topic but I'm hoping that some people here may be able to
help me out.  Please feel free to contact me directly if you'd prefer to
keep this off-list.

I was wondering if anybody has or is using SNMP to monitor CPU/Disk usage on
their Win2K servers?  
There is a HOST-RESOURCES.mib that comes with Win2K but when I use an SNMP
browser to walk through the machines OID's I never see anything related to
this stuff.
I see all the usual network-related statistics but nothing for CPU, disk or
anything covered by that mib.

I know that you have to compile some mib's with the compiler tool in the
Win2K resource kit but the supporting docs don't tell you what to do with
the output files or even how to turn this functionality on.

Has anyone used this mib file?
How do I use it?

We're pretty set on using SNMP if we can just because we don't want to rely
on another vendor's agents etc. where we've been burnt before (expensive
too!)

I also wanted to look at some Exchange metrics via SNMP and while the
Exchange docs tell me how to set this up, they refer to using a tool called
perf2mib.exe which MS has abandoned and does not provide anymore (no support
after res kit supplement 2).

Any guidance will be deeply appreciated,
Kevin

P.S. I tried to compile that mib file there now and it came back with syntax
errors.
