The message Feb 7 14:11:37 gatekeeper ntop[9045]: RRD: Thanks for using the rrdPlugin
Comes from the term of rrd - looks like you cycled it (good) Make sure the boxes are checked for data to dump. I usually use detail full, but even low should generate something. Make sure you're looking in the right place (RRD Files Path) no just some rrd directory on the system. You should see something like this: RRD Updates 2819 RRD files updated If that doesn't work, look at the RRD_DEBUG setting - try the #define RRD_DEBUG 1 setting, at the higher levels it will generate lots of output, but it will show you in gory detail what RRD is doing. -----Burton -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Darren Bentley Sent: Friday, February 07, 2003 6:00 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Ntop] Ntop & RRD + releaseMutex() On Fri, 2003-02-07 at 15:38, Burton M.
