[mrtg] Re: Help:monitoring var

[manjunath ramaiah]

Hi ,

I am using mrtg version 2.9.4 . If i specify maxbytes2 as zero it is giving
error that the value should be greater than zero . This check is done
in  MRTG_lib.pm. So the minimum value is 1 . This will result in
graph for 2 variables also visible .

Thanks
Manjuanth
