Why can't SNMPc find 'Dir' entry in WIN.INI?

There is currently a problem with running SNMPc under Windows Server 2003. SNMPc normally gets its directory configuration information from the WIN.INI file, but Windows 2003 sometimes maps the INI file to the registry. When we try to get the value, it checks the registry rather than the file and can't find the directory where SNMPc is installed. In 7.0 we added an additional registry entry as a backup. What you should do is open up REGEDIT and make sure the "Dir" value is set to the proper SNMPc directory in these two locations:

* HKey Local Machine\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\IniFileMapping\win.ini\SNMPc Network manager
* HKey Local Machine\Software\Castle Rock Computing\SNMPc Network Manager

As long as there is a value called "Dir" that is set to the correct path in those two keys, SNMPc should be able to pick it up. The installation is supposed to do it automatically, but it may not have written them due to permissions settings on your computer.
You can close this window when you are done.
