I'm sorry for the trouble. As what I can say, the entire RRD conversion logic is the most tested part of the snapshot, as there are no standard RRD tools available for that. Therefore, I've tested it on a lot of profiles without any problems. Could it be, that the RRD files where somewhat corrupt? Anyway, if you can reproduce that, and it turns out a bug in the converter, let me know. No software is bug free - unfortunately. - Peter > > Cheers, > > -Wim -/- SURFnet > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
