[mrtg] Re: MRTG: indexmaker pagetop error

[Simon Watts]

Daryl,

You have told indexmaker to use the description field as the graph
name on the index page, (with the --section=description option).

This option relies on the part of the PageTop field that looks like
this:

  <TR><TD>Description:</TD><TD>FastEthernet1/0/0 blah blah blah </TD></TR>

Your configuration does not have this line, so indexmaker can
not use the description property for the graph title.

I also believe, but are not entirely sure, that you must provide the
interface name, followed by a space, then your description followed
by another space before the closing </TD></TR> tags, like shown
above.

Hope this helps,

Simon
