Thanks for your further update, Bernard, It looks like my unlucky day.
I removed the rrdtool 1.0.48, and ganglia-webfrontend, reapply rrdtool.1.0.45-1, and ganglia-webfrontend, restarted all, but still get no graphs??? Are the versions on ganglia stuffs match with yours?

The version of rrdtool we have for our RH9 is 1.0.45 - I have a feeling the RPM you have d/led is not compatible with RedHat 9.0... I recommend you get this: http://www.rpmfind.net//linux/RPM/freshrpms/redhat/9/rrdtool/rrdtool-1.0 .45-1.fr.i386.html Good luck.
