Writing to remote windows event log doesn't work?

Hi.

I am trying to write to the windows event log on a remote Windows 2012 server as an action in response to an snmp trap and can't get it to work.

I can write to the event log on the NPM server itself no problem, but the remote doesn't work.

I pushed the agent to the remote server and can monitor it from npm no problem.

I ran wireshark on the NPM server. Although I can see it having a conversation with the remote windows server, it all seems to be part of the monitoring process. I can't see it doing anything specifically related to the trap.

I restarted the Solarwinds trap service, no change.

Any ideas how to make this work? Thank you.
