sounds like for this specific task you'd be better off using something
other then MRTG, I would reccomend SNIPS for icmp monitoring of systems:

http://www.netplex-tech.com/software/snips/

you can see my sample setup:

and some sample rrd graphs:
http://mrtg.aphroland.org/rrd-graphs/
(snips itself generates the rrd graphs, even though it's shown within
my MRTG 'zone')
