Because I tested using qmail-mrtg from the links, and multilog, and it doesn't work. A quick review of the code indicates that it only supports the cyclog output. Darn! I've been waiting to switch to multilog because of this. Ken

In any case, I've attached a tar.gz file of what we use to generate MRTG graphs for our server using multilog log files.

Re: MRTG & QMail
I'm not sure what scripts you've already seen. But there's link to these from the qmail.org: http://x42.com/qmail/mrtg/ There's a mini howto with it as well.

If you use the qmail-mrtg scripts and cyclog, it will work really nicely. cyclog is in daemon-tools-0.53. I've not been able to get daemontools-0.70 with multilog to work with qmail-mrtg. Ken Jones
MRTG & QMail
Can anyone direct me to a source for getting MRTG to graph traffic on a QMail/Vpopmail Server? I found one set of perl scripts to do this, but they are not very clear on what kind of logging I should be doing or how to set it up. Thanks in advance for any help you folks can offer on this one.
