[mrtg] Need help trying to figure out how to filter out a certain type of interface

[Stephen D. Rasmussen]

All,

We are running MRTG and every time we run it the script I am running renders all of the interfaces I WANT it to, but also a couple which I don't want.  I am hoping someone can tell me how to alter my current cfgmaker script to automatically ignore these interfaces.  My current script looks like this:

perl cfgmaker --ifdesc=alias --global WriteExpires:Yes --global "RunAsDaemon: yes" --global "options[_]: growright,bits" --global "WorkDir: c:\inetpub\wwwroot\mrtg" --output mrtg.cfg --subdirs=HOSTNAME --snmp-options=:::::2 "--if-filter=(($if_is_ethernet || $if_is_ciscovlan) && $if_admin && $if_oper)" XXXXXXXX@##.##.##.##<mailto:XXXXXXXX@##.##.##.##>


What I would like to do is put a filter in which automatically ignores interfaces with a DESCRIPTION like NDE_##.  Can anyone tell me what filter expression I could add to our cfgmaker script to ignore these automatically instead of having to comment them out of the config file after creation?

Thanks in advance,
