Rate doesn’t support negative numbers.  You need to use rrdtool to graph
negative numbers.  By default, the RRDfiles created by mrtg are turned
with a min value of 0, so after creating the red files, you need to tune
them with something like:

For k in *temp*.rrd ; do rrdtool tune $k -i ds0:-800 -i ds1:-800; done
