To compile a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Management Information Base (MIB) file with the Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) MIB files, use MIBCC.EXE (included in the Windows NT Resource Kit version 3.5). For example: 

   MIBCC -oOUT.BIN SMI.MIB LMMIB2.MIB MIB_II.MIB WINS.MIB DHCP.MIB
The order of the MIB files is important. In this example, you need to copy OUT.BIN to MIB.BIN and place it in the %SYSTEMROOT%\SYSTEM32 directory. If you compile without the -o option, MIBCC.EXE overwrites the MIB.BIN file that is already in your %SYSTEMROOT%\SYSTEM32 directory.

To print each node as it is added, and print the MIB tree when finished, compile with -n and -t, respectively. For example: 

   MIBCC -n -oOUT.BIN -t SMI.MIB LMMIB2.MIB MIB_II.MIB WINS.MIB DHCP.MIB
