check_traffic plugin - another problem

[Marc Powell]

Looks like check_traffic could use some work to massage interface names. Looks like it's trying to find the directory x.x.x.x_Ethernet0 to create the file 0.rrd.

Maybe it should substitute _'s for /'s like cricket does.

Also, when I run the check_traffic plugin via the command line I get:

[obeauche at mrtg libexec]# ./check_traffic -H x.x.x.x -i 3 -b 1250000 -r
Ethernet0/0 -w 95 -c 85
ERROR: opening
'/usr/local/nagios/check_traffic-0.90b/db/x.x.x.x_Ethernet0/0.rrd': No such
file or directory
Total RX Bytes: 1646.57 MB, Total TX Bytes: 2422.08 MB<br>Average Traffic:
9.62 kB/s (0.8%) in, 2.47 kB/s (0.2%) out
[obeauche at mrtg libexec]#

So, snmp is doing it's thing. I think the plugin in general is doing it's
thing... but not creating the .rrd files.

Thanks,
Olivier

PS.
It would be nice if some of the variables that had to be edited, like
hostname, host and community were able to be entered via the command line
rather than hard-coded into make-config or check_traffic.
