Thanks Henrik...I just saw that while re-reading the man page...I should 
know better than to do this stuff when I'm tired...Hobbit just rocks...

Just as a curiousity, can you use hobbitrrd to split out the individual 
datasets like the disk tests and tcp test do...so I could have 
termusers.ActiveSessions.rrd, termusers.DisconnectedSessions.rrd, etc?  
That would be extremely useful for tests which provide a lot of 
differnet datapoints.  Maybe by defining the TEST2RRD like 
termuser=NCV:split?   I would think that would be the only component 
that would have to change if I have understand how that works properly.
