Steve, thanks again. I have changed the task to run every 5 minutes, which 
currently means it fails every 5 minutes.


Here is a snippet that appears after manually trying to run (community string 
and IP changed). The hosting provider swears they have not altered the 
community string.  Does anything look obviously wrong?

SNMPv1_Session (remote host: "10.10.10.10" [10.10.10.10].161)
                  community: "xxxxxxx"
                 request ID: 1304582469
                PDU bufsize: 8000 bytes
                    timeout: 2s
                    retries: 5
                    backoff: 1)

The location of error logs depends on your system setup; I can't help you there.

MRTG will poll at 5min intervals by default only if you are using Daemon mode 
(you arent).  Therefore, you should set your cron job to run every 5 mins, 
unless you have explicitly set a 10min interval (you havent).

Steve

Steve, thanks very much for the response.  I will pursue what you have 
suggested.

I did search for some error logs but found none. Where are they hiding?

Is mrtg by default going to run every 5 minutes without my intervention, or are 
you saying I should change the task to run every 5 minutes instead rather than 
the 10 I set up?

Thanks again!
