Try using the original features=unix,sysv,solaris rather than just
features=solaris.

Try removing the "include" line. There is still an unresolved problem
on some Solaris machines where the uxmon-net file is actually read once,
then read a second time starting at some arbitrary point in the file.

Have a look at the var/uxmon-net.* files in order to see what uxmon
actually thinks what is in your uxmon-net file. Removing the include
statement should usually work around this problem.

BTW: Solution is pending because I have still not found someone who
is willing to either give me access to a box hurt by this problem or
alternatively is willing to send me a disk image (dump or tar should
do) of such a box (Wink mit dem Zaunpfahl :-))

That's not absolutely necessary.

You have two choices:

  1) Install the "rrdtool" binary in some location where Big Sister will
     be able to find it (in the PATH!), e.g. in /usr/bin.

     In this case you will get a warning that the RRD perl binding is
     not present but Big Sister will fall back to using the rrdtool
     binary.

  2) Do what you did (either install the RRDTool perl module where perl
     will be able to find it or add a "use lib" statement)

Best regards,
Tom
