I'm using RRDTool with Win2K (it's an .exe file). I downloaded "rrdtool-1.0.40.x86distr.zip" from http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/rrdtool/download.html
Here is what I did: 1. Create a folder \rrdtool in your mrtg folder (mine is c:\mrtg\) 2. Unzip rrdtool-1.0.40.x86distr.zip into c:\mrtg\rrdtool 3. Create a folder c:\mrtg\rrdtool\bin 4. Copy (or move) the following files into the c:\mrtg\rrdtool\bin folder from the folders in the \src folder: a. rrdtool.exe b. rrdcheckbounds.exe c. rrd_cgi.exe d. rrd_stats.exe Add the following to your *.cfg file: PathAdd: c:\mrtg\rrdtool\bin LibAdd: c:\mrtg\rrdtool\perl-shared logformat: rrdtool Open a command prompt and change to the directory where rrds.ppd is located (on mine it's in c:\mrtg\rrdtool\perl-shared) and type ppm install rrds.ppd (or ppm install rrds.pm). This will install the rrds.pm module. RRDTool should convert your old log files on the first time it is run. You may want to back up your log files also (although I'm pretty sure they aren't deleted). When we did it, some of our information was garbled and we started over on our stats collection. You might want to read the documentation on how the create rrd files and create them to your specifications (we added extra RRAs and extended how long information was stored). Once you understand it, it's somewhat simple. Good Luck!
