Sorry about the error. In DEF you should read:

    DEF:inoctets=r\:/systems/routerA.rrd:ds0:AVERAGE

instead of:

    DEF:ds0=r\:/systems/routerA.rrd:ds0:AVERAGE

Still, it doesn't work!

I've tried that but it doesn't seem to work!
What have I done (step-by-step):
1) I've mapped a network drive R:\ in the machine running IIS
2) Inside it I have a directory called systems
3) And inside it I have a file called routerA.rrd

In the script (.rrdcgi), I've refered to this rrd file like:

    DEF:ds0=r\:/systems/routerA.rrd:ds0:AVERAGE


Still I got the following error message:

	[ERROR: opening 'r:/ponet/ponet_ethernet.rrd': No such file or
directory] 


What might be going wrong??

Thanks.

Hello,

you have to put a complete (absolute) link for the rrd file as : 

    DEF:xx0=f\:/data/c_pings/ciscoa-ciscob.rrd:maxrtd:AVERAGE

(this is not a valid link... it's just an example)

	and once there I can see routerA.rrd!!!
	Is there any know bug/incompatibility between rrd_cgi.exe and the
use of a virtual directory?
	Because, using rrd databases stored locally (with no need for
virtual directories) everything works fine!

	Thanks in advance!
