Hi,
I do this by modifing the profile.dat file. First you need to change the
profile status to new by modifiing the following rows:
type = 2
locked = 0
status = new
Next, you need to replace all .rrd files of your profile by emtpy ones.
You can obtain them by creating brand new profile and replace all .rrds
with new empty .rrd file from the new profile.
Then navigate to nfsen Stat tab of this profile. You will be able to
click on the green Tick symbol which starts the rebuild of the whole
profile.
This works for me very well.
Enjoy,
Jan
