Thanks to both Steve and Lambert. A combo of both their suggestions got things working.
An su to the user netflow did show that the librrd file location was unknown. I fixed ld.so.conf and ran an ldconfig which fixed that but nfsend still died. I then rebuild everything now that ldd was fixed and still no love from nfsend :) I then backleveled rrdtool to 1.2.28, found another missing dependancy, re-ran ldconfig. Then rebuild nfdump and nfsen. Now all is well!!! Nfsend stays alive, nfsen status looks normal and I have netfow data: nfsen status NfSen version: 1.3 NfSen status: Collector for 'Peering_ehprobe3' is running: 22778. nfsen daemon: pid: [22780] is running. Now onto trying mulitple profilers again..... -Robin On 10/15/08 7:13 PM, "Steve Foley" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The problems I had were a little different (and were on Solaris), but > I noticed the nfprofile wasnt running happily due to it not seeing the > librrd shared library when it was run as the correct user.
