Werner,

Thanks so much I got things straight My graphs started ploting this
morning. I had to stop  both nfsen and softflowd then run them in order,
softflowd then nfsen and surely it started running. I am trying to find
out what I wasn't doing right, although the three softflow instances I was
aware and made them so.
