[mrtg] Running Mrtg as a service on NT

[Landa, Brian]

Just to clarify:  What you need to run as a service is NOT the "perl MRTG
mrtg.cfg" command, but rather a batch file or exe that calls that command
every 5 minutes.


@ECHO OFF
ECHO **********************************************************************
ECHO HIT  [ALT][TAB] to return to windows desktop.
ECHO HIT  [CTRL] [BREAK] to manually cycle MRTG
ECHO ======================================================================
BREAK ON
:OKDOIT
PERL C:\MRTG-2.7.4B\RUN\MRTG C:\MRTG-2.7.4B\RUN\AS5200.CFG
SLEEP 300
GOTO OKDOIT
call this file   runit.bat okay
then look at the 5 step.. and use   c:\<path> to the batch file \ <name of
the batch file> runit.bat
where <path>\<application.ext> is the drive and full path to the application
executable including the extension (i.e., C:\WinNT\Notepad.exe)
this is all you need to do...
