[mrtg] Config file help

[John]

I'm running MRTG version 2.10.15 on windows and I'm having a problem
with the data not being stored to the log file correctly. The script I
made (apcaccess.pl) talks to apcaccess.exe (which is part of apcupsd).
The problem output is a counter that only counts up when the UPS is on
the battery.  I think my problem is in my config file.  I included all
the relevant parts, I think.

Thanks for any help.
