[Xymon] Devmon on Xymon 4.3.2 - if_load and temp issue for all devmon hosts

Quick question - when you say "here are my rrddefinitons for the above", did
you put those into server/etc/graphs.cfg, or server/etc/rrddefinitions.cfg??


The rrddefinitions.cfg file is read into a structure that gets handed to
rrdtool to create the rrd file if it doesn't exist.  All that wants is
things that would get passed to "rrdtool create" and it doesn't want a "-l
0" option.

The graphs.cfg file is the place where you describe how to generate the
graphs when the cgi program is called to display them.
