Re: Way to sort RRD like top talkers

Does MRTG graph is based on rrdtool ?
what about cucti ? Cricket is good because you give the OID and get the 
rrd based graph at once.
I found it having config tree is a very use full feature, however it is 
defecult to understand
and customize it ... lol

I tried again but here is the out put, it can not find the Cricket modules:

Fetching with LWP:
ftp://cpan.sunsite.ualberta.ca/pub/CPAN/modules/03modlist.data.gz
Going to read /root/.cpan/sources/modules/03modlist.data.gz
Going to write /root/.cpan/Metadata
Warning: Cannot install Bundle::CricketPrereq, don't know what it is.
Try the command

i /Bundle::CricketPrereq/

to find objects with matching identifiers.

***************************************************************************************
