IPCop 1.4rc5 with more MRTG graphs

Hello out there!

I want to use IPCop 1.4rc5

Can I include more MRTG graphs into the WebGUI? More exactly I want to
see MRTG graphs of all my Servers (CPU, RAM, NIC and HDD) in the farm
but don´t know how to modify the config files of IPCop.

I don´t know much about CGI programing - hope there is an easy way :)

Some ideas ?

thanks

Dennis

Bottom line is you can't install any additional software on IPCOP as it
has no compiler. You can only install binaries that have been compiled
on another platform and even then you better make damn sure that what
you are doing doesn't compromise the security of the box.

To install Cacti you would need to install MySQL and PHP as well on your
IPCOP box. I'd look at installing MRTG on another Linux box specifically
for the job rather than fsck up your firewall.

I'm sorry for the typo.

It is the nicest, indeed! Though mrtg is also great.

Yes, you need to install PHP and MySQL too; config both of these to run
in a safe mode only.
