I used to use CiscoWorks 2000 a long time ago.  Anyway, I'm trying out
the 90-day trial version of CiscoWorks LMS running on a VMWare Windows
2003 Standard server.  Using the Server Setup link, I've pointed to a
Cisco router, configured the SNMP community and told CiscoWorks to
discover from the router as a seed.

CW completes the discovery OK, but does not return any devices.  I
made sure the Windows firewall was turned off.  I even installed a
freeware SNMP browser and had it scan the network, and it returned the
SNMP info for all my SNMP-enabled network devices, not just the one
Cisco router.

I also tried pointing at non-Cisco routers and switches, and even
scanning entire IP address ranges, but CW still doesn't find any
devices.

Has anyone got any ideas about this?  I'm guessing I skipped over
something very basic, but can't imaging what.

Never mind; I had access-lists on the router blocking from the CW
server's IP range.  Duh.

Make sure you increase the standard time out and also number of tries. 
Personally I think that LMS should be renamed POS.
