only time I have seen this is when my system had a disk problem. About a year
ago the main disk in the system that did MRTG had a hiccup and I lost all
my MRTG log data instantly:(

I have since replaced the disk with a raid1 mirror.

any I/O errors in the logs? Otherwise I cannot imagine why that would
happen. Or a system crash?
