What mc2 does
|
|
What mc2 does | mc2, The MRTG Configuration Checker, is an application to create and edit
configuration files for MRTG
2.x. It consists of a Java Applet and some cgi scripts wirtten in perl.
You may want to look at the manual.
|
What do I need to run mc2? | First, you need a working MRTG 2.x installed. Please refer to the MRTG Web
Site at http://ee-staff.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/mrtg.html
on how to get and install MRTG. If you have MRTG up and running, you have anything you need for mc2: A Unix/NT server machine (I tested it only on a Sun, but it should work on other Unix and maybe NT boxes as well), Perl 5.00x, a web server (e. g. apache) on the server machine and MRTG. Any client connected via Internet or an intranet with a browser capable of Java 1.1 will do. I tested it on Netscape Navigator 4.0.5 for NT, but it will surely work on other OSes and with other browsers as well. It should work with the Java Plugin from Sun as well. It will NOT work with a browser which understands only Java 1.0.
|
Download | Download the mc2980803.tar.xxxx file. Uncompress it using gunzip bla bla
bla and tar i-don't-know-how. Then, please read the Installation guidelines. A few words about security may be interesting as well.

License | This software is published under the GNU General
Public License. Please read this license before using mc2.
|
Future Releases | This application is the product of a Internalship Project at Rentenanstalt / Swisslife, Zurich, Switzerland. After my internalship ends in Fall 1998, I won't have much to do with MRTG: Therefore it is quite unsure if there will be a future release from my part (I have a lot of other projects, but if there's a lot of response... :) However, you are encouraged to make mc2 better, add some features and fix some bugs that may appear. But please, if you make a new version, let me know.
|
How to contact the Author | As mentioned above, after my internalship ends, I won't work for
Rentenanstalt/Swisslife anymore. I won't be able to help you a lot. The documentation
provided should be enough help to make it running. However, I may give some help if you
think of developing a new version. Please contact me by mail: mc2@x-loop.com
|
How much is it? | mc2 is distributed freely under the GNU General Public License. You
can download and use it without paying me or Rentenanstalt / Swisslife. I got paid for it. |
