[mrtg] Re: Working with a template.

[Brander, Eric]

Lets break your command line options out a line at a time:

./cfgmaker
  --global 'WorkDir: /home/httpd/mrtg/'
  --global 'IconDir: /icons/'
  --global 'Options[_]: growright,bits'
  --global
  --if-template=/usr/local/mrtg-2/bin/template
  removed at removed.com
  --output /usr/local/mrtg-2/config/removed/mrtg.cfg

As you can see at the 4th --global, that there is nothing after it.  If you
used this command, cfgmaker is assuming that you want
"--if-template=/usr/local/mrtg-2/bin/template" as a global option.  Which of
course, will not work.  Remove the extra --global and I bet it works for
you.

Subject: [mrtg] Working with a template.



	Hi, I am currently trying to get a template to work that will pull
the names of my interfaces off of my Extreme Black Diamond and use those
names instead of 1001 1002 1003 1004 for the 'displayed' names inside MRTG,
this is the commandline I used with config maker:

./cfgmaker --global 'WorkDir: /home/httpd/mrtg/' --global 'IconDir: /icons/'
--global 'Options[_]: growright,bits' --global
--if-template=/usr/local/mrtg-2/bin/template removed at removed.com --output
/usr/local/mrtg-2/config/removed/mrtg.cfg

The file /usr/local/mrtg-2/bin/template does exist, but when I try and start
mrtg via mrtg mrtg.cfg I get :

ERROR: Line 21 (--if-template=/usr/local/mrtg-2/bin/template) in CFG file
(mrtg.cfg)  does not make sense

In the help page for cfgmaker it says that --if-template= is the correct way
to call a template.

Any clue would be most helpful,thanks ;-)
