[mrtg] Re: MRTG stops unexpectedly

Thanks Paul, I had forgotten to add the RunAsDaemon line to the new .cfg
file. Much appreciated.

So you run MRTG once?  You need to either put that command into cron, 
or add the RunAsDaemon: Yes.  One or the other, it doesn't matter.
Just pick one and go with it.

MRTG needs to poll the data once every 300 seconds or so.

MRTG is running on a Solaris 8 system. I start MRTG by running the
following:

./mrtg mrtg.cfg --logging /var/log/mrtg.log

An I supposed to daemonize this?

thanks in advance

How about some more information?  Are you running as daemon?  Are you
running via cron?  What O/S?  Have you deleted on the .ok files since
regenerating the cfg (I know that's not the right thing, but not much to
work with here...).

MRTG was running without a hitch until I regenerated the .cfg file b/c I
added a device. Now I try and start MRTG and it quits without notice almost
immediately. The log file simply notes that MRTG had started and logs
nothing else. I have since returned to the original configuration file but
that is not doing the trick. Any ideas?

thanks in advance
