I'm not really sure how to use cfgmaker templates. I'm kinda learning these things as I need them. Is there a way to just plug in an OID or something?

Make sure you use the 5-min load average, not the 1-min or 15-min, if you are polling at 5-min frequency (but use the 1-min if you are polling at 1-min frequency, of course) If you cannot use SNMP, then you might like to use the Nagios NRPE agent with the check_load plugin, then use the mrtg-nrpe plugin for MRTG to allow MRTG to query the values fomr the Nagios agent. mrtg-nrpe is in the 'extras' directory of the standard Routers2 package from http://www.steveshipway.org/software - this is the way we do it here.

I've tried a number of different scripts and can't find anything with the glorious Google method. Does anyone have a working method to monitor load on some Linux machines?
