[rrd-users] Re: Graph: parse DEF problem

[Henriette.Harmse at za.didata.com]

Hi Stephan,

Thanks for the help. I am calling rrd from Java and escaping ":" did the
trick.

Kind regards
Henriette

If you use it in a script, escape the ":" in the way you should do.
Another (preferred) way is to put the path into a variable (which you anyway

this will do.

Best regards,

Stephan
