RE: Squid 1.2beta18 and SNMP

MRTG is an excellent little perl/C combination utility that graphs traffic
from routers/servers/whatever. Part of it's grandness is that it can be
made to graph pretty much whatever you want through careful tweaking.

Apparently one can only find out about MRTG through the link it puts on
the bottom of it's generate graph pages (kind of like when you download a
compressed decompression utility like I said to someone else on the list
:-). The link to get MRTG info from is:

http://ee-staff.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/mrtg.html

Have fun! It's a great little grapher.
