[mrtg] Re: Assistance please

This is really just a guess, but I wonder what verion of Perl you are 
using.

I know "our" came into being 5.6-ish, I guess its possible that you're 
using an old version of Perl that does not yet support declaring "my" 
variables.

Again, just my knee-jerk reaction...
