Hello,

I've already got an apache webserver, collectd on 4.6.3-1 and all are on 
a Debian (lenny). I was thinking that the package install everything I 
need (like rddtool, present too on 1.3.1-4 version).

I never saw the graph on the local computer fro 2 reasons :

- There is no X server
- My only way to access to this computer is ssh.

Some packages are missing on my server ? If yes, what are the 
prerequisites ?

Thanks
