[mrtg] Re: Odd looking daily graphs

The OID is an ever-incrementing counter; I was just
sloppy with my target definition. It should acutally
be "connections per minute". 

What concerns me about the graph is the sawtooth
looking pattern. I guess I am expecting a nice, smooth
blue line, which is what I had seen for a while. A
server reboot caused an anamolous spike in the values
for these OIDs. I deleted the mrtg log files for the
targets and waited for the new graphs to be generated,
which is when I spotted the sawtooth graphs.
