I'm still trying to put all the pieces together to get MRTG running on Solaris 8. Here's where I'm at: Running Solaris 8 on a Sparc box. I have the developer's packages loaded, necessary for gcc, etc. I have downloaded: gcc-3.4.1, libpng-1.2.6, autoconf-2.59, bison-1.875d, flex-2.5.31, and make-3.80. From what I can figure "thing one" is to have a compiled version of gcc in place before anything else works. I'm still searching for that. Then the idea is to unpack each of the packages into /usr/local/<pkg> and get them running and then get MRTG going in much the same way. Does that sound right? It looks like I have to get zlib going before libpng but is there any particular order for the rest of the packages? Any other hints / clues / encouragement would be welcomed.

I tend to use Sunfreeware packages for tools which puts gcc in /usr/local. Here, MRTG has it's own home directory, which is where the binaries, configs and HTML are kept. This makes it easy in an environment where the home directories are shared out. You can pretty much keep anything anywhere you want. Last time I built an MRTG binary I used gcc from Sunfreeware and just installed the dependencies in my home directory and made sure they were statically linked in MRTG so I didn't need to worry about installing the libraries on every server. For cross-platform stuff, (I display CPU/Swap usage for AIX and HPUX servers from the Solaris system) I just have those systems create the MRTG data in a file on the system. The MRTG "master" server has a config which just does an ssh and cats those files using an external monitoring script target. Easier than maintaing binaries for every different platform, here anyways.
