i think i set up everything properly : -added an "apache=http://bigbrother/server-status?auto" for my bigbrother server, (le server-status page works) -removed my existing .rrd file for bigbrother,e -hobbit created the file

but, it doesn' seem to feed it; in my rrd-data.log, i'm getting : 2005-07-28 16:17:00 RRD error updating /data1/hobbit/data/rrd/bigbrother/apache.rrd from 127.0.0.1: expected 3 data source readings (got 6) from 1122560220:277053:383710:35:10:.186747:4.75758:...

Something other than Hobbit created that rrd file - Hobbit doesn't create apache.rrd files with 3 dataset definitions.
