SYMPTOMS
On Microsoft Windows 2000-based Systems Management Server (SMS) clients that use the SNMP Event to Trap Translator tool, when you attempt to configure traps, some event descriptions may be truncated after the first letter. Although this is a cosmetic problem only, it makes it difficult to configure clients appropriately.



CAUSE
The SNMP Event to Trap Translator tool was altered by changes made to the event message dynamic-link libraries (DLLs) that are included with Windows 2000.
