[mrtg] Issue with MRTG and explicit OIDs

[Peter Dolkens]

Hi again,

Upon further investigation, it appears that these counters are reporting
that they're "Integer32" values, and being treated as signed values.
Is there any way I can override that to be "Counter32", which, I assume, is
unsigned?

Thanks,
Pete
