you're right. What is NOT perfectly OK though is to not have a reverse DNS entry
for an IP. Anyway, we're way off topic , so i'll just drop it.

Use www.mrtg.org, and report the problem to the folks who manage the server (we're all here because we want help from our peers on how to use MRTG).
 
www.mrtg.org (actually http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/ ...) has been in my bookmarks
for more than 3 years, it just so happenned that i checked mrtg.org today.
