Dear all.....

Actually i'm very new here..... ;p
and i use mrtg before, so is there any explanation how to use this rrdtool ?
Like in mrtg, we must cfgmaker 1st, then mrtg and then display it at web....
how rrdtool does all the graphs, because it's very usefull for us to
monitoring our network using the rrdtool ( i see it at the galery at rrdtool
website )

Thanks alot,
