Package: mrtg
Version: 2.9.17-4 (not installed)
Severity: wishlist
Having no timestamps in the log files of mrtg makes it difficult to
judge if the last error is old or from a recent run. I fixed it on my
machine by adding this little perl script into the pipe in the cron job:
---->8----
#!/usr/bin/perl
$| = 1;
while (<>) {
print "[".localtime()."] ".$_;
}
----8<----
The line in /etc/cron.d/mrtg is now (I also made this line a bit more
comapct:
0-55/5 * * * * root [ -x /usr/bin/mrtg -a -r /etc/mrtg.cfg ] &&
/usr/bin/mrtg /etc/mrtg.cfg 2>&1 | /etc/mrtg-scripts/log-timestamp.pl >>
/var/log/mrtg/mrtg.log
(This in one line)
Greetings Tobi

Version: 2.14.3-1
Upstream added timestamp in logging in version 2.14.0, hence it's
fixed in Debian at above package version.
Thanks for the report!
