MRTG is w= orking on a new server without issue, except for the fact it overwrites all= files placed on it. When I copy in the .old and .log files for a target and initiate MRTG it al= ways replaces the entirety of the two files with zeros and the graph histor= y is gone. In some cases, we have graph history going back 2 years or more. What is the best way to restore these old files? Additionally, what is the = best way to merge old data, or two graphs into one?
