Heh.. Since you're going to be like that about it..

"Is it possible to log one value on the graph instead of two?
Look in the contrib directory for sample cfg files."

Which I had already read.

I didn't see any example config files there, looked through the most of the
subdirectories, didn't see any reference to what I want to do. Rather than
spend a few hours reading over all the config files that might be there in
the subdirectories I thought I would ask, since the answer is clearly not
evident and even the docs contridict themselves.

Example:

# * You can also explicitly define the OID to query by using the
#   following syntax 'OID_1&OID_2:community at router'
#   The following example will retrieve error input and output
#   octets/sec on interface 1.  MRTG needs to graph two values, so
#   you need to specify two OID's such as temperature and humidity
#   or error input and error output.
# Target[ezwf]:
1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.14.1&1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.20.1:public at myrouter

^-- In the sample config in the doc directory.

No, I'm not an expert with MRTG. I'm just trying to figure out how to make
it do what I want it to do. I had 5 hours to do that in and a stack of
documentation between MRTG and the SNMPD. I've figured out most of it on my
own, the few questions that I have asked I probably have looked over the
answers to. I don't think anyone was hurt by me asking on the list. Is that
not what it's here for?

Bigger ARGH + doot - foobar =  .
