[mrtg] Re: Console Windows Popping Up

[Kizlyk, John]

Change the scheduled task so that it starts under a different userid on your
box.  Works fine here (WinXP sp2, AS Perl 5.8.4, mrtg 2.10.15, rrdtool
1.0.48, routers2.cgi 2.15beta2) - we are required to have different
administrative accounts than our regular 'work' accounts on our domain.

Subject: [mrtg] Console Windows Popping Up

I am running Active Perl version 5.8.4 on a fully patched Windows XP SP1
system with MRTG 2.10.15.  MRTG runs as expected except Console windows keep
popping up every five minute when MRTG run.  I start things with the
following shortcut in my startup folder:

C:\Perl\bin\wperl.exe mrtg --logging=eventlog.txt both.cfg

The working directory is set to D:\progra~1\mrtg-2.10.15\bin

The config file "both.cfg" as been modified with :

RunAsDaemon: yes
WorkDir: d:\Progra~1\mrtg-2.10.15

C:\Perl\bin is in my path.

Those popup windows are driving me nuts.  TIA.
