I'm suggesting making this a new cfgmaker feature as it is asked so many times. The idea is that by default cfgmaker will check to see if 64 bit counters exist and if so use them. That way, the folks that don't read the documentation or research won't have this problem any more. Introduce a new cfgmaker 'knob' to turn this off if so desired.

draws wrong when the traffic arrive 100 ~110 Mbit...<br><br></font></div>
<div>Dear All,</div>
<div>I'am using MRTG for draw the telco line traffic. But I have a problem.
When the traffic is high (up to 100Mbit), the graphic shown
down...I try 3 different mrtg servers& mrtg versions for this
problem but i can't :( I can get the true ifinoctets &
ifoutoctets values when the problem is going on (I try on the same
server). What can i control for resolve this problem? If you can help I will
be very hapy... </div>
<div>Thank you for your help...</div>
