Jim,
What values do you expect to appear in the graph?
The logfiles from the 'gauge' config shows that during the past 7 hours
the biggest change during a 300 second poll interval was 2, and in most
of the intervals there was no change at all.
During these last 7 hours and without the perhour or perminute option
there will only be a zeroes shown in the graph: 2/300=0.0067 which will
be rounded down to 0.
Jan.

If you notice, the "guage" option is missing from the second config file
and I would have expected the graph to display the difference. The
problem is the log file doesn't fill up with values except on the first
line with the current value from the csv file.
I have not had problems with graphing small numbers in the past either
without using the per min or per hour option.
(I omitted the legend part of the config file.)

Jim,
To get the rate in stead of the totals you have to leave out 'gauge'
from the options line. If the numbers you want to graph are rather low
you can add 'perminute' or 'perhour' at the options line. To be more
specific about low: By default you get the rate per second. Considering
that MRTG polls only 1 time per 5 minutes so the value retrieved from
the target line will be divided by 300. This means the smallest step
shown in the graph is 300 (per second). By using the perminute option
the value retrieved from the targetline are divided by 5, which results
in steps of 5 (per minute) If you also want to graph the values in
smaller steps than 5 you need the perhour option.
Note that you have to add some lines to change the legend too (LegendI,
LegendO, Legend1, etc.).
Hth,
Jan.

A little more explanation...
I am using Paul Simmonson's method to collect MRTG data using
performance monitor on a Windows 2000 Exchange Server.
(http://www.wn.com.au/psimmo/)
I am collecting data on Symantec Antivirus for Exchange on
content/property/spam/virus violations.
Here is the data from the cvs file on content violations...

I then grab the same data in the cvs file and don't use the "gauge"
option and expected to get the amount of content violations in the
previous 5 minutes. I use this cfg file...
Title[EXCHANGE2000-24]:\\EXCHANGE2000\SAVFMSE 3.0(SAVFMSE)\Content

Pagetop[EXCHANGE2000-24]: <H2>EXCHANGE2000 - Content Violations Found

"\\EXCHANGE2000\SAVFMSE 3.0(SAVFMSE)\Content Violations Found"`
YLegend[EXCHANGE2000-24]: Legend
That log file looks like this...
1050033570 0 12917
1050033570 0 0 0 0
It is all zeros all the way through. Only the first line updates...
So what am I doing wrong or what could I change?
