Hello Peter,

I am trying to add an addition Netflow source to my existing
nfsen/nfdump deployment. I have followed your recommendations listed
below:

" There is an ugly work around - but no warranty whatsoever. Do it at
your own risk:
 1. Be sure, that you really want to do this.
 2. Accept, that all graphic data in your graphs get lost. Graph will
be rebuilt only
    from data existing in your data directory.
 3. Add the new source in nfsen.conf
 4. Stop NfSen.
 5. remove all rrd files in profile live directory.
 6. Re-run ./install.pl /your/nfsen.conf
 7. Start NfSen.
 6. Run ./nfsen -r live"

I even took it a few steps further. I actually blew away all
directories (BASE DIR and HTML DIR) and backed up existing raw netflow
data to a different file system. When I  run ./install.pl
/your/nfsen.conf it actually creates the directories and files for the
newly added source. Permissions are set up correctly. I import my
existing nfcapd data back into their directories and rebuild the
profile with ./nfsen -r live. But, when I run nfsen.rc start, a
process for nfcapd for the new source is not started. Nfcapd is only
collecting for the same sources and is not collecting for the newly
added source. Am I missing something?

Thanks,

-Matt
