Hi thanks for the effort. I tried installing but i did not succeed. as far as i understand, the perl version currently installed (and needed for apache2) is not compatible with this version. Or probably I did this completely wrong, i'm not that experienced with Linux. anyway, i had to remove and install mrtg again to get it running again, because the installed version refused to run correctly
