Because you sepcified your DS with min=0 and max=1.
25 is way beyond 1 :)

man rrdtune will help you on how to change the max value for your DS
(hint: -a)
Or recreate your rrd, but this time with DS:host1users:GAUGE:600:0:100
or so.

Ok, this isn't working, and I don't know why.

finger @host1 | grep -c tty > host1.users

creates a text file with "20" in the file (at the moment)
so I did this manually:


then I did this:

rrdtool update host1users.rrd N: < host1.users

and I also tried this:
rrdtool update host1users.rrd N:25
when I do this:
rrdtool dump host1users.rrd > host1.xml
I see all "NaN" for all the above attempts
Why ??
