Ok, I tried to create the MRTG directory just to be sure and it said it already existed.

The SNMP version that MRTG is polling is set to 1 as indicated by the :::::1 so it's not a ver. 2c issue.

Should I set it to ver. 2 and see what happens?

Also, my admin password has a - (dash) in it which the wiki suggests could cause permissions/graphing problems. I'll change this as well.

Thanks

Tried SNMP v2 as well as changed all my password to ONLY be alpha numeric as suggested in the Wiki yet I'm still not able to see data on those ports.

Please advise

Of course, I'm writing something up to put on the wiki, but what happened is there are some growing pains with Nagios XI and CentOS 6 and one of the minor dependencies wasn't install: bc. What I did was yum install bc, which allowed the check_rrdtraf plugin to function properly, and thats all it was.
