MRTG

MRTG is included in RHEL4; if want to install separately do following:

 create user 'mrtg' with private group 'mrtg'
 mkdir /www/mrtg2.15.0
 chown mrtg.mrtg /www/mrtg2.15.0
 cd /usr/local/src
 chown mrtg.mrtg mrtg-2.15.0
 cd mrtg-2.15.0
 ./configure --prefix=/www/mrtg2.15.0
 make
 make install

Add MRTG-related part to apache config file /www/apache2.2.3/conf/httpd.conf:

 Alias /mrtg "/apps/mrtg2.15.0/share"
 <Directory "/apps/mrtg2.15.0/share">
   Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
   AllowOverride None
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all
 </Directory>

Correct contrib/mrtg-startup-script/mrtg and copy it to /etc/init.d/.

cd /www/mrtg2.15.0 mkdir etc

1. example
2. cfgmaker --global 'WorkDir: /home/httpd/mrtg' \
3. --global 'Options[_]: bits,growright' \
4. --output /home/mrtg/cfg/mrtg.cfg \
5. community@router.abc.xyz

DOEN NOT WORK YET ... /www/mrtg2.15.0/bin/cfgmaker --global 'WorkDir: /www/mrtg2.15.0/etc' \

        --global 'Options[_]: bits,growright' \
        --output /www/mrtg2.15.0/etc/mrtg.cfg \

1. copy old stuff from clasweb-bck:

cd /www/mrtg2.15.0/etc scp clasweb-bck:/etc/mrtg/"*" .

1. create 'web' directories

cd /www/mrtg2.15.0/share mkdir htmls mkdir images mkdir logs

1. web stuff from clasweb-bck:
2. scp clasweb-bck:/var/www/html/mrtg.html .
3. scp clasweb-bck:/var/www/html/mrtg.tar .
4. tar xvf mrtg.tar

1. add following to apache config file (/apps/apache2.2.3/conf/httpd.conf):

Alias /mrtg "/www/mrtg2.15.0/share" <Directory "/www/mrtg2.15.0/share">

   Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
   AllowOverride None
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all

</Directory>

1. adjust it if necessary

1. create desired index.html in /www/mrtg2.15.0/share, it will be used
2. by browser if 'http://clonweb/mrtg/' typed

1. copy old stuff from previous htlms/*, images/* and lods/*,
2. if 'mrtg' was running before; it will preserve history;
3. 'logs' contains recent history, while *.png contains
4. longer history; start 'mrtg' right the way:

env LANG=C /www/mrtg2.15.0/bin/mrtg /www/mrtg2.15.0/etc/mrtg.cfg
