[mrtg] Re: [mort] Size/scale of graphs

[Stieers, Ken]

Ok, I was wrong on that one.  MRTG scales to Absmax if it exists.  If you
remove the Absmax, you'll get a graph that stops at 1mb, an stays there.
The problem is if you cross that line, rateup will ignore it.  I'm not sure
if that means its graphed as a 0, or treated like it didn't get any data.
