You might have had it in one of the .cfg files at one time.

Remove the lock files, reboot your machine, then do a    "top | grep mrtg" to watch when mrtg runs.

Ok  this is strange... I am using
mrtg-2.8.12-2.i386.rpm, and the config file that I make with cfgmaker and customise does not
have RunAsDeamon,
but  mrtg is running without me even putting it in the crontab.

it is working fine now, but does anyone have any ideas, why/how this would happen. I also see no
proccess for mrtg if it was running as a daemon.

Thanks for all your help.
