Dear George,
Thank you for your post. I understand that you want to install the SNMP
Service and customize the "Community name" setting with a script. If I have
misunderstood you, please let me know.
I have performed research and I think that we will be able to fulfill these
requirements by using a particular tool and by editing the registry.
Section 1: Install "SNMP Service":
=============================
We can use the sysocmgr.exe tool to add/remove Windows 2000 Components
automatically. This tool can be found in Windows 2000 CD's
Support\Tools\Deploy.CAB file. The unattend.doc in the same cabinet file
contains the optional switches.
Here is a sample script:
******* START *******
;SetupMgrTag
[NetOptionalComponents]
SNMP=1
[SNMP]
Any_Host=YES
******* END *******
You can save it as C:\Unattend.txt and use a command like the one below:
Sysocmgr.exe /i:%WINDIR%\inf\sysoc.inf /u:c:\unattend.txt
For more information, please refer to the following KB article:
222444.KB.EN-US How to Add or Remove Windows Components with Sysocmgr.exe
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;222444
Note: By the way, the systems must have access to the Windows 2000
installation files. By default, they seek for the files according to a
registry key. If necessary, you can adjust the installation location to a
suitable one (for example, a certain network share).
323003.KB.EN-US HOW TO: Change the Location of the Installation Files in
Windows 2000
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;323003
Section 2: Customize the "Community name":
=================================
Community names are saved subkeys under the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SNMP\Parameters\TrapCon
figuration
We can add or adjust Community names by manually editing the registry.
Section 3: Summary:
=================================
Based on the above analysis, we can create a batch file to run the
following commands:
The Sysocmgr.exe command
regedit /s CommunityName.reg
Note: To create the CommunityName.reg, you can configure a client and
export the TrapConfiguration key from its registry.
Also, if you want to adjust the installation location and perform other
operations (for example, coping files from shares and deleting them after
running these commands), please add commands as necessary.
I hope the above information helps. Thanks and have a great day!
