[mrtg] Re: Problem running mrtg from crontab

[L.C.C. Hector M. Hernandez]

Because the cronjob use csh shell....try running mrtg in a shell script like
this:
---------------------------------
#!usr/bin/csh
/usr/local/mrtg-2.9.4/bin/mrtg  /usr/local/mrtg-2.9.4/bin/mrtg.cfg
---------------------------------

make it executable (chmod 755) an run it.


Héctor.
