[mrtg] Re: ? on includes (I think)

[Daniel R . Kilbourne]

heh....fixed my own problem after Daniel McDonald mentioned the WorkDir settings...

it got me thinking, and I solved my issue

I was victim of a feature (I think).


The first 74 included cfg files all had the same workdir, but the last 2 I added had a different workdir..

so, it looks like mrtg must read all the configs first, take the last workdir specified, and use that for everything
since the rrd's were bing updated, just in the wrong directory


bad thinking on my part....



Daniel R . Kilbourne extolled:

Now, the odd thing is that I have no typos, and the config file runs just fine, with no errors, but the *.rrd files do not get updated.
