I use FireDaemon, www.firedaemon.com, to start each of those config
files as a service. You don't get any DOS windows, they can start up
like an NT service, and you can use firedaemon's GUI to control just
those particular services.

There are other programs similar to this out there, but you get the
idea.

Subject: [mrtg] Too many dos windows open...any better way?

Hi
We run MRTG and use one config file for each device which we graph, and
thus
one dos box is open for each config file running in daemon mode....this
totals about 45 dos windows open and its tough to manage this number of
windows...is there any better way of doing this?  Sometime I need to
find a
particular instance of MRTG in which I've got to hover my mouse over
every
window until the config file name pops up and then I can stop the
graphing
or whatever.  Thanks

Jason
