greetings ken and henry,

i hate to admit defeat, but ...

i have upgraded to 2.8.8 and i am running the 2.8.8 indexmaker with the -v 
switch, but i still only get daily graphs, and none of the text data (max, 
average, min) is displayed.  here is the command i am using (among other 
variations, such as single and double quoting the m, pipes, monthly vs. m, 
different locations in the options string, etc.):

system 'perl i:\WhatsUp\Web\mrtg-2.7.4b\run\indexmaker -t "Production Servers" 
-v m -1 -b #ffff99 -o 
i:\WhatsUp\Web\mrtg-2.7.4b\ithelpdesk\reports\prod_server.html 
i:\WhatsUp\Web\mrtg-2.7.4b\run\reports\prod_server.cfg';

this just doesn't seem to work for me.  all the other switches seem to 
function, except the -P/-p doesn't seem to have any affect. can you see any 
blatant errors here?  there are no error messages generated by execution.

here's the reason i want the text data.  i have to generate a report every 
month that quantifies interface bandwidth utilization.  currently i drill into 
the interface pages i want and copy the monthly average values to my 
spreadsheet.  ideally, i would like to use indexmaker to build a page of all 
the interfaces i need for this report. the page would include the text data 
that is under the monthly graph on the standard interface page.  the graphs are 
optional.

i was hoping the -v switch, if i could get it to work, would include the text 
data from the graphs, but it doesn't look like the functionality is there. do 
you have any other ideas?

thanks for your assistance.

matt

The the indexmaker in the latest version of MRTG 2.8.8 has a switch to do
this.  
The switch is  [-v d|w|m|y]
