Help Getting Custom Graph Working

I seem to be having a problem getting a custom graph

to work. I've gotten it working in the past, but I'm having

problems.

 
I'm sending four values via a test. When I do a rrdump,

it shows only three of the values. The fourth value doesn't

show up.

 
If I rotate the third with the fourth value, ie..re-order them,

the other value shows up. 

 
example:    Users : 11
         Unauth : 4
         Attempts : 13
         Total : 486
 
So,Total doesn't show up, but if I rotate total


with Attempts, and remove the login.rrd file,
then Attempts doesn't show up.
 
Here's what my hobbitserver.cfg file looks like:
 
NCV_login="Users:GAUGE,Unauth:GAUGE,Attempts:GAUGE,Total:GAUGE"
 
Thanks.James

Never mind, I finally got it. In my script I had:

 
LINE="status $MACHINE.$TEST $COLOR `date`

 
`cat $CHKLOG`"

 
I changed it to:

 
LINE="status $MACHINE.$TEST $COLOR `date`

 
`cat $REQLOG`

"

 
It must need to see a newline at the end...

Make sure you send a new line at the end, as I think the ncv collector 
actually looks for name, colon, value, newline (maybe it should be called 
ncvn?).
