Thanks for your response, 

I downloaded the DLL and installed it.

But i still get this error : 

Event Type:	Information
Event Source:	MRTG
Event Category:	None
Event ID:	1000
Date:		3-1-2005
Time:		12:57:30
User:		N/A
Computer:	ACC_SERVER01
Description:
ERROR: Target[ip.ipinaddrerrors][_IN_] '1.3.6.1.2.1.4.5.0 at 172.30.6.200:'
(warn): (Missing operator before ?). 

This error is for all manually items i added to the CFG file.

Sebastiaan,

The message in the Windows eventviewer is normal. From the
http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/mrtg-reference.html:
++++++
NOTE: Note, there is no Message DLL for mrtg included with mrtg. This
has the side effect that the windows event logger will display a nice
message with every entry in the event log, complaing about the fact that
mrtg has no message dll. If you go to the mrtg contrib download area (on
the website) you will find the mrtg-message-dll.zip which does contain
such a thing.
++++++

About your graph not showing any data:
How many ipInHdrErrors do you expect?
By default MRTG calculates the rate per second. Values are rounded down.
In other words If your counter shows less then 300 in a 5 minute
interval you will see 0 in your graph.
To avoid this you can use the "PerMinute" or "PerHour" option.
In cases of a very low incrementing counter you can even consider to use
the Gauge option.
See http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/mrtg-reference.html
for details.

Hth,

Jan.

Hi,


I am trying to get some counters from a Cisco 2950 Switch.



I have a config file like this :



Target[ip.ipInHdrErrors]:1.3.6.1.2.1.4.4.0 at 172.30.6.200:

MaxBytes[ip.ipInHdrErrors]:100                       

Ylegend[ip.ipInHdrErrors]:Errors                    

Title[ip.ipInHdrErrors]:IP Header Errors                      

PageTop[ip.ipInHdrErrors]:<H1>IP Header Errors</H1>




MRTG does start without any problems.

However, the counters i've add just didn't seem to be measured.

I checked the event viewer, and for all entry's the following item was
listed :





Event Type:      Information

Event Source:   MRTG

Event Category:            None

Event ID:          1000

Date:                3-1-2005

Time:                10:02:19

User:                N/A

Computer:         ACC_SERVER01

Description:

The description for Event ID ( 1000 ) in Source ( MRTG ) cannot be
found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry
information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote
computer. The following information is part of the event: ERROR:
Target[cpu][_OUT_] '1.3.6.1.4.1.9.2.1.58.0 at 172.30.6.200:' (warn):
(Missing operator before ?).



Can anyone explain me what i have done wrong ?



Is the ":" neccessary behind the ip address of the monitored device ?
--> counter at ipaddress:



Thanks in advance.



Regards,



Sebastian van Dijk
