[ARGUS] Problems with ragraph

[Carter Bullard]

Hey Bob,
   Well it looks like there are some problems with
ragraph(), and so I'll have to look into it.  I've been
using 1.0.45 up until now, and so once I get 1.0.48 in
I'll be able to check it out.

   I'd be interested in any jitter results you're getting.
And/or if you're getting something you're not sure of, send
something to the list, as jitter doesn't get much air
time here, and argus is doing some rather interesting
things with jitter.

Carter

I'm using rrdtool-1.0.48 on a Fedora Core 2 box.

I'd be more than happy to send you some of the data I'm using or my
argus.conf is you'd like it.

Although it doesn't look like I'll be able to use ragraph anyway.
 From the man page, it doesn't look like jitter is one of the metrics
ragraph will graph, and jitter is the metric I'm most interested in
measuring.    Oh well, I'm still quite happy with the text data I'm
getting from argus.   This is a very cool program BTW.
