Everyone at the UNIX and Linux Forums gives their best effort to reply to all questions in a timely manner. For this reason, posting questions with subjects like "Urgent!" or "Emergency" and demanding a fast reply are not permitted in the regular forums.

For members who want a higher visibility to their questions, we suggest you post in the Emergency UNIX and Linux Support Forum. This forum is given a higher priority than our regular forums.

Posting a new question in the Emergency UNIX and Linux Support Forum requires forum Bits. We monitor this forum to help people with emergencies, but we do not not guarantee response time or best answers. However, we will treat your post with a higher priority and give our best efforts to help you.

If you have posted a question in the regular forum with a subject "Urgent" "Emergency" or similar idea, we will, more-than-likely, close your thread and post this reply, redirecting you to the proper forum.

Of course, you can always post a descriptive subject text, remove words like "Urgent" etc. (from your subject and post) and post in the regular forums at any time.


Thank you.

NAME

       forum - Interactive Help for MRTG users

SYNOPSIS

       There is a lot of written documentation for mrtg. But never the less you may have a problem where you can't find the solution.  In this
       case some Human Help may be necessary. With MRTG there are several ways to get Humans to help you.

MAILING-LIST
       There are three mailing lists for MRTG available.

       mrtg
	   for discussion among mrtg users

       mrtg-announce
	   for announcements regarding new versions of mrtg related software

       mrtg-developers
	   for discussion among people who write software in connection with mrtg or who hack mrtg itself.

       THE RULES

       Please note, that the memebers of the mrtg mailinglist value politeness highly. This means behave in a way you would like others to behave
       towards you.

       o   No shouting. (NO CAPS)

       o   No rude language

       o   No demands. everybody is on the list out of their own free will. If you do not get an answer to your question, chances are high that
	   you did not give sufficent details about the nature of your problem or that the answer to your problem is in the documentation.

       o   If you do not follow the rules you will be unsubscribed from the list with no further questions asked.

       o   Decisions about your unsubscription from the list will be taken by

	    Alex van den Bogaerdt <alex@slot.hollandcasino.nl>
	    Paul C. Williamson	  <pwilliamson@MANDTBANK.COM>

	   If you feel that you have been treated unfairly, you may send mail to me and explain the situation.

       SUBSCRIBING

       These lists are managed by a mailing-list management software (listar).	It allows you to subscribe to these lists by sending a message
       with the subject: subscribe to the following address:

	listname-request@list.ee.ethz.ch

       You will then get a message asking you to confirm your subscription.

       For posting to the lists use the following address
