[mrtg] Re: SNMP error

[Daniel R . Kilbourne]

I am running mrtg 2.9.17 with absolutley no problems monitoring pretty much anything possible on several *nix flavors (SunOS, Solaris, FreeBSD, Linux)


Have you tried doing an snmpget on the OIDs in question to see what is returned? It looks to me like it will not be an integer.....
