[mrtg] Re: SV: Re: List abuse

[Justin Shore]

The docs are pretty helpful.  If nothing else they are an excellent 
reference.  I can understand how some newbies have trouble though.  A 
key thing is examples.  Lot's of examples.  "Here's an example that 
demonstrates 'ThresHolds'."  etc...   I've received many requests for 
help from the two stats sites I've built.  Too many for me to readily 
handle too.  I'm going to strip my configs, clean them up, and make 
them public.  I'll gladly help contribute text or configs to the 
effort.
