hi all,
thanks for the help. I have been trying several things that you told me. I'll give more information. I am monitoring bandwith with MRTG and storing datas in rrdtool format.
If i run command from command line is

./check_rrdtraf -f ./var/www/html/cfg/62.81.189.118_1.rrd -l B -c 3000000,3000000 -w 5000000,5000000

./var/www/html/cfg/62.81.189.118_1.rrd does not exist.

I am graphing with routers2.cgi and it receives values, and if i do :

 rrdtool fetch /var/www/html/cfg/62.81.189.118_1.rrd AVERAGE

i see it is storing values...
what is wrong? I had read check_rrdtraf help and i have included -l B option to indicate that data are bits...but it is still not working

As Marc pointed out in his response, having the ./var instead of /var in the path to the .rrd file is wrong. you want /var WITHOUT the period. Also, note that the -l switch only affects the display of the output. It is not needed in normal operation, unless you really want to see the output as bits rather than Kb, Mb, etc. The plugin will auto-choose the best option based on the data if you leave this switch out. But the main problem is the period before that slash. Remove it, and it should work.

any more ideas?
Thank you again for your patience!!!

That would be (partly) my plugin, obtained from Nagiosexchange.org,
most likely :)

And did you really want that period before the /var ?

The -vv is an issue, although there could be a couple of others (see
previous comments about the formating of the file string in the
command). As that flag gives a lot of debugging output, and nagios
only displays the first line of output, I wouldn't expect it to show
the traffic values with this switch in there. What I would expect
nagios to be showing is something along the lines of "Using RRD File: /
var/www/html/cfg/$HOSTADRESS$_1.rrd" (I think that's the first line of
debugging output I put in there), with $HOSTADDRESS$ replaced  with
the applicable value. Try without the -vv and see what happens.
