I just install it on CentOS via yum. I forget what repo it's in, maybe EPEL. I do that to get the required dependencies. And then remove the repo provided Cacti since it's almost always out of date. Then download the latest from cacti.net or restore my backup, etc.

I've said this before and I'll say it again. Cacti is not an NMS. It's an RRDtool front-end. A lot of plugins like Thold are buggy. I still use it, and it works fine. Been using Cacti for like 9-10 years.

            *Subject: *[AFMUG] Cacti Users poll

            A number of us are cacti users.

            Who would be interested in forming a group, where we all
            pay a small monthly fee to have a “company” build and
            manage a cacti template library for us?  We would specify
            our template requirements.

            They would be expected to;

            Create templates as requested.

            Update templates for new firmware.

            Keep a library of all templates.

            I don’t know what company yet.

            What do you think?

            Adam
