Hey Marshall,
Go back to perl? We can't have that. What output do you want?
I'm guessing an integer value? %11.0lf works for me.
Here's the appropriate RRD documentation:

We are far from RRD experts here. We just like the pretty graphs.
Be patient... documentation people are coming.

Outstanding, thanks for explaining the format params.
I guess it's back to trial and error or back to my old perl/mrtg
scripts....

Marshall,
If the value is a counter you don't get the exact value of the data
as it comes in you get the delta from last time. This is most likely
interpolated to match the next expected time for the value.

Yeah, through trial and error counter seems to be the right type but
the format string is what I'm trying to get straight.
These will be non-decimal or * 8 numbers, I just want to graph the
exact number returned from the snmp query, what would be the format
string for that and could you point me to a reference for those
formats?
%1lf and %0.1lf perform some unwanted decimal placement and
arithmatic on the returned values, bank and % don't seem to work at
all.

Your type should be COUNTER or GAUGE. Yours are likely GAUGE values.

I'm trying to set up a couple rrd data sources and graphs for a
few devices and oids that are integers, one is the off a Cisco CSS
returning the number of current connections to a given service and
the other is off a dialup device reporting how many DS0s are
currently being used.
An example is below;
$ snmpget -v 2c -c xxx 10.25.254.4
1.3.6.1.4.1.2467.1.15.2.1.63.5.112.101.97.114.108
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.2467.1.15.2.1.63.5.112.101.97.114.108 =
INTEGER: 34
$ snmpget -v 2c -c xxx 10.25.254.4
1.3.6.1.4.1.2467.1.15.2.1.63.5.112.101.97.114.108
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.2467.1.15.2.1.63.5.112.101.97.114.108 =
INTEGER: 63
$ snmpget -v 2c -c xxx 10.25.254.4
1.3.6.1.4.1.2467.1.15.2.1.63.5.112.101.97.114.108
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.2467.1.15.2.1.63.5.112.101.97.114.108 =
INTEGER: 57
My question is, in the PerfConf menu what should be my "Type"
setting what should be my format sting?
