Have in mind that some of the include paths got mingled at the end and I had to fix them by hand. Here is how parts of the options looks like before:

/I /I /I "" ..\..\..\agent++\agent_pp"" "" ..\..\..\agent++\include"" "" ..\..\..\snmp++\include""

...and after it is fixed:
/I "..\..\..\agent++\agent_pp" /I "..\..\..\agent++\include" /I "..\..\..\snmp++\include"

The above example is for the "\msvc7\dynamic\agent++\agent++.dsp". Basically what happens is that newly created DSP file has double quotes after the "/I" directives. That forces VC6 to modify the file and threat those double quotes as the empty paths, and leaves the original paths in the back of lines without any sense.

One last thing is that converting of the *.SLN files will convert all of the DSP files bellow, which is much faster than doing each of those individually. There is no difference doing it one way or another regarding the double quotes issue.

Well, I was able to start the service with no errors, but when queried with GET request, it times out every time (error message is Request Timed Out). I was using only V1 and V2c request for testing. Could it be that I still need a full V3 configuration in order for agent to accept V1 and V2c?

Cool!! I will send you the One to rule them all then as soon as it is done!
