[mrtg] Re: Got the libgd.so.0 fixed but now this

[Stieers, Ken]

This is normal. 

In a normal run, MRTG deletes the old backups, renames the current log to a
backup and rewrites the   log with new data.  In the first run, you'll get 2
error messages, one when it can't find the backup, one when it can't copy
the current to a backup.  The second run you'll get errors about no backup,
the rename will work.  The third run, you'll get no error because all of the
files exist.
