WHAT?  MRTG only needs to be running on the collection server.
SNMP needs to be running on the remote machine.  You need to read some

MRTG docs to figure out what MRTG can do, and there is no reason to 
run MRTG on every machine you monitor.  I'd get shot if I asked to 
run MRTG on all 10,000 or so servers I'm monitoring...
