[mrtg] Errors from cron

[Simon Bedford]

Hi,

I wonder if you can help me, when I run mrtg from cron it sends mail to
/var/spool/mail/root with the following error message :-

ERROR: I guess another mrtg is running. A lockfile
(/usr/local/etc/mrtg.cfg_l) aged
0 seconds is hanging around. If you are sure that no other mrtg
is running you can remove the lockfile

After investigating there is no lockfile and mrtg is plotting a graph as
though everything is working fine, a little strange, I am new to mrtg
and I have subscribed to the mailing lists for future reference.

TIA

Simon
