<div>On most platforms, binary packages for MRTG are available wherever your usual repositories of packages are.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In most instances, you don’t need the RATEUP binary at all, because installations at scale generally use RRDTOOL.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>But since we don’t know what platform you are running this on, and we don’t know which of the 4 debugging steps listed below you have tried, and we don’t know precisely what your mrtg installation is going to look like, I don’t think anyone can really
help you…</div>
