Of course now I have another isue. The whole reason for this excersis was
that the Ubuntu instances were not providing historical data (using RRDB)
while the *BSD ones are. Someone sugested that the default configuration in
Ubuntu did not enable the RRDB plugin. But looking at the configuration
pages, there are a number of settigns for rrdb, so I have to assume it is
enabled, since I can't find any place to enable/disable it/

Any ideas on this?
