</div>Yes, I have two network test machines that do not run the display --<br>
these were that I was talking about. I already have rrdtool on the<br>
display machine and the graphs work. I did not know there was a way to<br>
say that I don't have rrdtool. I'll look through configure, I suppose,<br>
but I didn't see anything like "--without-rrdtool" as is often present<br>
in other software.<br>

</div>Thanks, I'll hunt around.<br>
