Scott, There are several ways to deal with peaks caused by nightly backups: 1. Use rrdtool and a frontend where you can select the hours you want to see 2. Lower the Maxbytes value in your configfile 3. Use "Logscale" or "secondmean" at the options line

That's fine in one case, as I want to see whats going on with the network conenction as whole, but I also want to be able to look at the normal traffic, like on a web server machine. How can I tell certain ports to chop the upper bounds to somewhere around 1Mbit or so. -- ------------------------------------------------------------- Scott Haneda Tel: 415.898.2602 <http://www.newgeo.com> Novato, CA U.S.A. -- Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/mrtg FAQ http://faq.mrtg.org Homepage http://www.mrtg.org WebAdmin http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/lsg2.cgi _________________________________________________________ Het ministerie van Sociale Zaken en Werkgelegenheid sluit elke aansprakelijkheid uit in verband met het niet juist, onvolledig of niet tijdig overkomen van de informatie in deze e-mail.
