[mrtg] mrtg-ping-probe

Hi,

 I am currently trying to use the packet loss feature
of the mrtg-ping-probe script. The log files appear to
be updating correctly. However the percentages on the
graphs are not. I ran it against a node on my subnet 5
times with the network cable disconnected on the 2nd
and 4th runs.

 The first run I received all 0% as expected. On the
second run, with the network cable disconnected, I
received 74% packet loss for the current, average, and
maximum. I received the same 74% number on the third
and fourth executions with the network cable connected
on the third and disconnected on the fourth. On the
fifth run with the cable connected, I received 43%,
58%, and 74% current, average, and maximum packet
loss, respectively.

 If I run mrtg-ping-probe against the node with the -p
loss/loss switch I receive two values which are 100,
100, if disconnected, and 0, 0 when connected.

 The other network health statistics I am measuring
appear to be working fine. I am using MRTG-2.9.10,
Activeperl 5.6.0.623, and mrtg-ping-probe 202

 Below is the mrtg.cfg text and attached are the
zipped log files from each of my five test runs. Any
assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Joe
