If you use RRDTool 1.0.50, I'm fairly certain that you lose some of the additional functionality of the graphs (like zooming in to a particular time). This functionality came with rrdtool 1.2.x, IIRC.

In case any one else goes through this I found the fix as follows for
redhat 3 Rhel3
Looks like I got a crap rpm, do not download form the following url!!!
*** http://staff.telkomsa.net/packages/rhel3/xymon/i386/ ***
Instead follow this.
Install the following from http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/rrdtool/
perl-rrdtool-1.0.50-3.el3.rf.i386.rpm
rrdtool-1.0.50-3.el3.rf.i386.rpm
rrdtool-devel-1.0.50-3.el3
Also install from dag:
fping-2.4-1.b2.1.el3.rf.i386.rpm
and
pcre-devel-3.9-3.i386.rpm
I also installed perl-Time-HiRes-1.9712-1.el3.rf.i386.rpm but not sure
if it is needed.
Finally I installed hobbit from:
ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/rpm.razorsedge.org/centos-3/RE/hobbit-4.2.0-7.el3.re.i386.rpm
And it works.
Thanks guys for your suggestions.
