\&\s-1MRTG\s0 is a relative newcomer to the NetWare platform. Earlier versions of NetWare could not run \s-1MRTG\s0 natively for
|
|
Packit |
667938 |
several reasons:

Support for the NetWare \s-1OS\s0 has now been fully added into \s-1MRTG,\s0 beginning with \s-1MRTG\s0 release 2.12.2.
|
|
Packit |
667938 |
.PP
|
|
Packit |
667938 |
Liberallly minded operating systems support a commandline length approaching 1000 characters. In such environments it
|
|
Packit |
667938 |
was an easy matter to pass the sometimes high number of parameters used by \s-1MRTG\s0's Rateup executable directly on the
|
|
Packit |
667938 |
commandline. Until NetWare 6.5, NetWare had a commandline limit of 512 characters. This limitation was also removed
|
|
Packit |
667938 |
for NetWare 6.0 by Service Pack 5. For other NetWare versions and earlier Service Packs, this limitation remains. To
|
|
Packit |
667938 |
permit a 'standard' interface for NetWare, the Rateup executable has been modified to also read its parameters from
|
|
Packit |
667938 |
a file, and the \s-1MRTG\s0 script has been modified to support this method on a NetWare platform. (See New Rateup Switch)
|
|
Packit |
667938 |
.PP
|
|
Packit |
667938 |
A Rateup \s-1NLM\s0 is now available, along with the necessary scripts to build it if required. See the NetWare Support
|
|
Packit |
667938 |
section of this document for further details. Additionally, mrtg.pl has been revised because of the unique (to NetWare)
|
|
Packit |
667938 |
name of executables (\s-1NLM\s0).
|
|
Packit |
667938 |
.PP
|
|
Packit |
667938 |
The absence of a specific installation procedure has caused \s-1MRTG\s0 to fail in the past because the Perl script could
|
|
Packit |
667938 |
not find or load the Rateup executable. The installation method supplied here will solve this problem for now.
|

Packit |
667938 |

|
|
Packit |
667938 |
The \s-1MRTG\s0.pl script in the 2.12.2 (or later) version of \s-1MRTG\s0 has been configured to suit all likely versions of
|
|
Packit |
667938 |
NetWare able to use Perl5, and bypasses all of the known problems with NetWare Perl running \s-1MRTG.\s0
