Re: [opennms-discuss] Need help with rrdtools

[Doug T. <tu...@en...>]

I answered your other email, but if you want to manually try, download
this file:

http://dag.wieers.com/packages/rrdtool/rrdtool-1.0.50-3.2.el4.rf.i386.rpm

the el4 in the file name stands for Enterprise Linux version 4, which is
the same thing as CentOS4

and do: rpm  -Uvh rrdtool-1.0.50-3.2.e14.rf.i386.rpm

I don't remember if I ran into dependency issues which is why I ended up
putting the dag repository in my yum config or if I just wanted dag
there.  If the above doesn't work, refer to my other email and that
should work.
