mrtg config question

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I just installed mrtg 2.13.2 on FC5 and noticed the sample config file in /etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg

This file has LogDir defined as /var/lib/mrtg

I suppose it doesn't really matter... but is that an error/typo? Shouldn't logs be kept in /var/log/... ?

I was going to Bugzilla this, but thought I'd get some other opinions first. :-)

Part 2: (The fun part) :-)

I created a new userid (mrtg) and created a little script to run cfgmaker and indexmaker, but now I don't know how to run mrtg so it can produce the graphs etc in /var/www/mrtg...

I suppose I could run mrtg as root... but I hate running stuff as root if not needed. Or, how can I grant write permission so the mrtg user can write to /var/www/mrtg, but not other apache-owned files/directories?

Thanks,
Don
