[mrtg] Re: META http-equiv=REFRESH not working

Great idea.  I had not checked that.  However that didn't fix the issue.  Any other ideas.  

Thank You

I have found that we can have this problem if you're using MSIE and the
caching options are set wrong.  If they are set to 'Automatically' then it
uses some annoying aggressive Microsoft formula that involves ignoring the
cache headers.  You should instead use 'Every visit to the page' which stops
this sort of incorrect caching.  The 'Automatic' option can even result in
pages being shown when the server is down, or not updating even though the
original was sent with 'no-cache' headers.
