You should see some data in the graph although I suspect it will not be a two straight lines at 25 and 50 as readynasd is also writing to the file every minute with some false temperatures.

You are correct sir.

If you are now seeing some data in the graph then the problem may be your script

I have no doubt. . . :cry:

To do this you need a hex editor to mod readynasd. Look for this text in the file:

Yeah, see my post above RE: "Linux Idiot" I think I should abandon this effort right here. I've done the hex editing thing in the past, sometimes it goes okay, sometimes not so much.

Also please be aware this could mess things up if you get things wrong so please only do this if you are confident and are happy to take the risk.

Yeah, not so much. . . Even though I would love to get the temperature graph working, it's not important enough to risk screwing things up entirely. I appreciate your and fastfwd's help on this, but I have to be realistic about my limitations in this area. I'm primarily a WinDoze guy, I just tinker with Linux stuff from time to time for fun and education.
Perhaps one day down the road, some ambitious person will compile a preconfigured patch or binary package that fixes some of these non-functional aspects of running OS6 on legacy ReadyNAS devices. . . :naskiller:

Thanks again for trying to lend a hand!

P.S: When you said "Try running your script from the command line a few times and check that it logs something." For educational purposes could you give me an example of what the proper syntax for such a command would be?
