[mrtg] Re: Graphed flatlined...

[Justin Shore]

	Shoot.  My MaxBytes is set to 192000 which should, 
theoretically, be plenty high enough.  I even tried upping it to no 
avail.

#MaxBytes[sktc_dsu]: 192000
MaxBytes[sktc_dsu]: 512000

	Well I'm stumped.  The daily graph seems to be right on the 
money.  The others are all jacked up.  That part I don't get.  What's 
worse is their precision is great but their accuracy sucks.
	The person I'm making this for also has the identical script 
running.  Its perfect.  With the exception of what we called our 
filenames, they are identical.  You can see their working page at...

http://www.sktc.net/mrtg/sktcdsu1.html

What gives?  Practially identical scripts.  My log file is correct. 
My other MRTG pages aren't affected.  MRTG just isn't graphing it 
right.  I've deleted the gifs and they are always regenerated in the 
exact same manor.  Has anyone been affected by this before?
