Do you have CGI graphs working? I can generate CGI HTML and I can CGI zoom on graphs but I can't get munin to generate CGI graphs instead of generating them statically. I'm not sure Gentoo's /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/munin.include is right since it doesn't reference /munin-cgi/munin-cgi-html/ at all. - Grant
