Re: [rrd-users] rrdtutorial not working

Hi Dan,

yes except that I don't think MS_SYNC is ideal it should rather be
MS_ASYNC and have the OS decide when to sync ... or would this not
suffice ?

otoh, things will only work well once the architecture independent
rrd file format is implemented ...

cheers
