Did you add the 'ncv' entry to the GRAPHS section in hobbitserver.cfg? See the last paragraph in Henrik's graphing HOWTO.

This was the solution to my previously reported problem. I found that without it, I got status messages in rrd-status.log but no updating of the rrd.

Hi,

this I put in hobbitgraph.cfg:

Ä=[ Å=] Ö=\ that's my setup of vt-terminal.

But there are no values in mailbox.rrd:

So what did you put into hobbitgraph.cfg ? From the error, it sounds as if there is no section beginning with

[mailbox]
