did “cfgmaker --output

and
got the cfg file. When I run indexmaker on it “indexmaker

<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Tahoma","sans-serif"; color: windowtext;">I
get a page, but that has problems. It looks like it tried
to create a graph for each interface it found. It looks as if it tried
to
create a page /var/www/mrtg/192.191.191.21_3.html, and
192.191.191.21_6.html
etc etc, but there aren’t any 192.191.191.21_#.html files anywhere. The
hyperlink looks right <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://myserver/mrtg/">http://myserver/mrtg/</a><o:p></o:p></span></p>

it appear like I still don’t have the cfgmaker

Are there # symbols at the front of those lines in the config files?<br>

is a good way to organize many devices? I was
thinking of building a cfg directory under the mrtg. It looks like each
device
will have many associated html files and that could get complicated.
Then
perhaps one master page with a link to all the individual pages I’ve
made
with indexmaker. What did you do?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

No, use rrdtool and Routers2.cgi and stop rebuilding those .png files
every 5 minutes. Huge waste of CPU cycles and severely limits the
number of devices you can monitor using mrtg.<br>
