[mrtg] Copying mrtg from one machine to another...

[Arvon Griffiths]

Our running copy of MRTG (2.12.2) doesn't have rrdtool or routers2 (AFAIK).
 
Q1: Could I install rrdtool and routers2 as I would normally and then just run the new MRTG executables from a user dir?
Q2:  Would adding RRDTool and Routers2 mess up the working MRTG 2.12.2?
