Hi,
    I've tried to solve the very similar problem 2 months ago. Try this
command:

nfdump  -M
/var/netflow/null:/var/netflow/Router-1/2010/06/21:Router-2/2010/06/21 
-R .

This command produce an error line, however the result data set should
be correct.

I think that many users would appreciate, if nfdump  supported the
multiple -M <dir>  option. The current system with -R -r and -M options
is a little bit complicated.

Have a nice day
    Tomas Podermanski
