mmmmmm! much nicer. For some reason I was thinking of taking the output of my modifications and putting them in Excel or something. throwing them in an RRD will be a lot better.

Has anyone made this work? I use MRTG and have a C compiler, but I'm still confused as to how to compile this, and where it stores the logs for MRTG or RRD?
The C code simply does the work of keeping tabs on the message count and sending a syslog message with the stats every 60 seconds. It's up to you to somehow get that information out of the logs and update an RRD, and then graph that information. All you'd need to get started is here: http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/rrdtool/tut/rrdtutorial.en.html Maybe somebody will send out a detailed HOWTO with scripts (Jay?) but for now you're on your own. -- Nate "I know your little 4th grade teacher said there are not stupid questions.
