</div>It is not working because you specified the name of the slave wrong in<br>
/etc/smokeping/Slave.<br>
<br>
You put "slave" as the name of the slave. Here is an example of a slave<br>
from my config:<br>
<br>
+ferrovax<br>
display_name=ferrovax (LA, USA)<br>
color=b95de6<br>
location=LA,CA,USA<br>
<br>
The first line in that excerpt defines the name of the slave you put in<br>
/etc/defaults/smokeping on the slave host. So in your case it would be<br>
"+ubuntu".<br>
