Cheshire Cat Computing

Hello from the US,

I have used MRTG in my past, and have loved its ability to adapt to just about anything you want to monitor. Well I am running Windows 7 64 bit Enterprise and would like to know if there is anything needed to get MRTG to run on this platform. I am trying to create a poor man's network mgmt system on my laptop, and would like to include MRTG as part of this.

Thanks,
Steve

It should work under Windows 64bit, but you'll need to get the 64bit Perl, and the 64bit RRDTool libraries. MRTG itself (and routers2) are Perl scripts and so are platform independent. I've not tried under 64bit myself (not having the necessary system to use) but Ive not heard of any problems.
Note that the RRD files will not be transportable between 32 and 64bit platforms though, if you're upgrading from an old system.
