This is not a problem with gmond. You only need to install gmond on the web server if you want to use it as a data source. The gmetad web frontend relies on gmetad. You have to have gmetad installed on your web server in order for the frontend to work. You can download gmetad from the ganglia download page http://ganglia.sourceforge.net/downloads.php There is documentation now on the docs page too about how to install gmetad http://ganglia.sourceforge.net/docs/ > Thanks ahead of time for helping a newbie. You're welcome. Good Luck. -matt
