I sent this first directly to Ronaldo but it might be of interest for you too:

MRTG can operate in one of two modes: 1. Logformat: rateup (this is the default) MRTG uses its own program rateup to store the data and to make the graphs. It does not use rrdtool. MRTG create the graphs and the html files every time it runs. MRTG does not create any index files. There is a tool "indexmaker" to create static index files and there are several CGIs in the contrib section to create index files on-demand. 2. Logformat: rrdtool MRTG uses rrdtool to store the data. MRTG does not create any graphs or html files. You need an additional program, e.g. a CGI to create the html files and graphs. There are two CGIs in the contrib section: 14all and routers. 14all will create index files too if you want. The option "rrdviewer" to indexmaker is only used if you have Logformat: rrdtool. "rrdviewer" tells indexmaker how to call 14all.cgi through a html link (or any other CGI, but don't know of any).
