[mrtg] Re: MRTG Error message about LANG set to UTF-8

[Joseph Pierini]

Bit of a cranky response dude.

I have a question, if you're running RedHat in English, what's your

Good Luck

If the authors of MRTG tell you it is a problem, why ask it here on this
list?

What part of " env LANG=C /usr/local/mrtg/bin/mrtg ... " did you not
understand?
