Sorry I was away for a week.. So I tried that, I did cut and paste, and
yes it gave me the right results like you have.  However! If you actually
update it normally like this:

rrdtool update x.rrd N:49955 every minute, you get wrong results that I'm
talking about!

even doing this:

rrdtool update x.rrd 980021640:49955

then a minute later doing

rrdtool update x.rrd 980021700:49955 and so on.



I'm running on Solaris 2.6 Ultra 5, using rrdtool-1.0.28

I've noticed however, that if you deviate by 1 number (i.e. the number
inserted each time is different from the last number inserted) then it
works fine!
