Firstly, unless you are using RRDTool and have extended the default RRA length on your system, you will not have 3 days' worth of data available at 5min granularity. If you are using 'native' MRTG (without the RRD backend) then you do not have the data and there is nothing you can change to make it so. The RRD and MRTG storage format are 'round robin', summarising and expiring data automatically after a preset amount of time.
The default RRD file generated by MRTG will have only two days' data at 5min interval, though you can subsequently use the 'rrdtool resize' command to extend the relevant RRAs (number 0 and 1). You can also use the RRDRowCount[] directive in the MRTG file to ensure that RRD files will be created with additional rows, though this only affects newly created files, not pre-existing ones. Next, in order to generate a 3-day graph, you need a frontend that is programmed to do so. The 14all and mrtg-rrd frontends only generate the normal 1-day graph. The Routers2 frontend has an option to generate a 2-day graph - if the underlying RRD file has large enough RRAs (older MRTG-generated files do not). You can also ask for a 1week graph with 'half data width' which is approximately 3 days. To get this, select the 'Weekly' graph, but use the 'stretch' data type (t). If you have enough underlying data in your 5min RRA this will be used for the graph, else it will use the 30min data form the Weekly RRA. The only real way to get what you want is to use something like rrdcgi and create the graph commandline yourself. In this case, you can generate a graph in whatever format you want, provided of course that the data are within the RRD.

I have looked through the paramaters and don't see anything that relates to the number of intervals that the 5 minute graph will display. Can someone point me in the right direction Bob Reiber BK Sales and Service Tel: (650) 376-1122
