<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0.5in"><FONT face="Times New Roman"
size=3><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">I have spent the last week or so playing
with the check_traffic plugin and reading the archives. I realize there
are some bugs in the make-config script and what not, I got most of that
figured out. What I haven't been able to master is the RRD files.
I have utilized rrdtool with the proper syntax to create the RRD files.
I went through the services.cfg to ensure I had the proper argument for
check_traffic to update the RRD files in the db directory, I checked the
check_traffic script and all syntax appears correct for the rrdtool update
command. I checked the permissions in the db directory and files, all
looks good there (heck, I even set them to world writeable).</SPAN></FONT></P>

size=3><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">After all that, my RRD files are still
not getting updates although the check_traffic appears to running without
problem or error. Any thoughts? I am not seeing any errors, but
not totally sure where to look to find them... any pointers would be
helpful.</SPAN></FONT></P>
