[mrtg] rrd

[Thorsten Clever]

Hi all,

i have a very strange problem here.
I use rrdtool-1.0.28 and mrtg-2.090007 with the options growright, gauge and integer .
The script i use as target is a perl script and the output is something like this:

10
4
0
machinename.domain.com

fine so far but in the rrd file it comes out like this :

<!-- 2001-05-29 15:05:00 MET DST --> <row><v> 1.5053333333e+01 </v><v> 1.7254666667e+02 </v></row>

There is _no_ way that the script prints comma values.
Why does rrd write the database so strange?
There is no timeout or something cause i piped the output through a tee and i can
see that the script works fine.

thanks allready.
Thorsten
