Well I had to install newer packages from Backports, but this is now working. For belt and braces, I have the two routers updating a local file as well as the remote one - so if the graphing server or network are down for any length of time, I can copy the local files over and "restore" the otherwise missing data. A couple of points : 1) When I use the --daemon option to rrdgraph, that flushes the cache but still accesses the local file doesn't it ? 2) Other than connecting to the socket, is there a way to trigger caches to be written ? I tried : >echo "FLUSH <some filename>" >> /var/run/rrdcached.sock but all I got was : >-bash: /var/run/rrdcached.sock: No such device or address -- Simon Hobson Visit http://www.magpiesnestpublishing.co.uk/ for books by acclaimed author Gladys Hobson.
