<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=107462514-25072008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>I have not been able to get the Hobbit graph thing to work
with negative numbers. If you are using the "manual" script method for
parsing the return, you should be able to save the output from the failing
server in a file, then run the processing script by hand to see what it spits
out (should be commands for the Hobbit RRD support to obey). I have spent
many an hour debugging my own stuff this way...</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=837593709-25072008><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>OK,
with everyone's help I have made progress. After trying all the different
suggestions it came down to: Why can't I get an "rrdtool dump" output? The
reason was that sometime in the past someone (probably me)
managed to replace the rrdtool binary with an empty file (stop sniggering at
the back please).</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=837593709-25072008><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

<DIV><SPAN class=837593709-25072008><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>So,
having got a real, working copy of the rrdtool program and running it on the

previously all these servers use the same scripts to send the data

you can see above the two different entries look identical in format. I
checked the scripts on the remote servers to see if there were any differences
between them and found a few minor differences but nothing huge. Still, just
to be sure I copied the postfixqueue.sh script from a working server to the
broken one and waited for it to run. Alas, although the script transmits
sensible data back to the Hobbit server:</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
