Hi

I have just started using Ethereal, great tool :-)
An old version of NetXRay this has a great feature were a compiled SNMP MIB
can be loaded in NetXRay then when looking at a SNMP packet capture, it
decodes the OID's to symbolic format. We find this very useful as the
equipment we are supporting is configured mainly by SNMP. Looking at OID's
all day is a pain!

How can I get Ethereal to decode SNMP OID's to symbolic format?

Ethereal version 0.8.16, compiled with GTK+1.3.0 with libcap 0.4a6, without
libz, without SNMP
Running on Windows 98

I don't have access to a compiler :-(

Can anybody help?

Cheers
