[mrtg] Re: Problems evaluating data

Discovered that for some reason if you configure your line to retrieve 
the same OID
twice in the configuration

eg.

Target[ezwf]: 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.14.1&1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.14.1:public at myrouter

Then this happens and you get -1 as the response in the log file.

Simply changing the 2nd OID to something else solves the problem.

If anyone knows of a sensible explanation why, then please let me know.

Regards,

Chris.
