Duh... of course I leave out an important remark for this topic: Above paragraph should read: Running rrdtool update every 'x' seconds where x < step size is OK and can for instance be used when 64-bit counters aren't available and the amount of traffic causes 2 counter wraps per run. In that case a heartbeat setting of (for instance) 120 makes sure at most one wrap can have occured. grtz, Alex -- Much of what looks like rudeness in hacker circles is not intended to give offence.
