All, Tnx for your help but I figured out what the problem was (and I feel terrible stupid about it).
In MRTG VLAN1 of the switch = graph1, and interface1 = graph2. So instead of looking at graph 25 for interface 24 (the testing interface), I was looking all the time at graph 24 that corresponds to interface 23... :-( To be short: Removing the '#' in the .cfg will work, but when testing, make sure you are looking at the right graphs. ;-) Tnx again for your time!

If you query them with SNMP you will get back a zero. Since MRTG (and configmaker) needs the speed of a port for its maxbytes value, the cfg file can not be generated. To solve this you can either set the speed on your switch ports and rerun cfgmaker or write a script that removes the '# ' in front of the relevant lines in your config and puts in a realistic maxbytes value.

But after I created the .cfg file, the inactive ports are all labeled with '#' signs as inactive. Trying to remove those signs in notepad and restarting doens't show any graph when I 'activate' a port (connecting to a pc and start downloading stuff). Anybody an idea? I tried to work with if statements, but they don't seem to work either. Original line: perl cfgmaker [EMAIL PROTECTED] --global "WorkDir: c:\inetpub\wwwroot\switch" --output switch.cfg Experimental 'If statement' line: :-) perl cfgmaker --output switch.cfg [EMAIL PROTECTED] --if-filter=$if_admin && $default_iftype --global "WorkDir: c:\inetpub\wwwroot\switch" It says then: '$default_iftype' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Any help is appreciated!
