[mrtg] Output from "cron" problem

I have mrtg setup to run from cron on a Sun Solaris 7 system as below: -

4,9,14,19,24,29,34,39,44,49,54,59 * * * * /usr/local/mrtg-2/bin/mrtg
/usr/local/
mrtg-2/cfg/mrtg.cfg

It periodically gives the following error but not at every invocation: -

Your "cron" job on server-apg
/usr/local/mrtg-2/bin/mrtg /usr/local/mrtg-2/cfg/mrtg.cfg

produced the following output:

Can't fork at /usr/local/mrtg-2/bin/mrtg line 560.

I've looked at the code but work out why it's doing this.  Has anybody seen
this before or got any ideas as to what's going on?

Regards

	Mick
