Cool... I'll look into that. Mind you, even though I've enabled logging and have specified "debug" as well, so I get as verbose a message as possible, all I get for log messages is "...Date... ...Time... -- Started mrtg". (I'm hoping thats becuase whatever was causing the problem is no longer there)
Anyway, I should be ok to delete all these lock files right? thanks for any input, Joubin ----- Original Message ----- From: Michael Sanford <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thursday, January 15, 2004 9:09 am Subject: RE: [mrtg] Too many lock files > >I'm finding there are a lot of lock files for some of my configs, > thatlook >like this: device1.cfg_l_1234 > > > >Can anyone explain why I'm seeing this kind of behaviour.
