[mrtg] Re: rrd-tool, mrtg, 14all.cgi and multiple devices

[Julien Borne]

Can't you just use a variable to keep in memory the argument given by 'dir'? I
remember that in ASP I did "url=Request.QueryString(dir)", and so the 'dir' from
http://.../name.asp?dir=name was used to take the 'name' given and put it into
the url variable... Then I used 'url' in all my page, such as:
if (url=name1) then
endif
if (url=name2)then.....
or with ucase (url) I think...
Well it worked with asp, and I think CGI scripts may be able to do this as well.

Not sure, but you may try it.

Good luck
