      Feb 4 16:31:36 bandwidthd: Syntax Error "syntax error" on line 11

                Please show me the line in question that you have to remove each time.

                I think we're getting close…

                    Okay, deinstall and reinstall one more time.

                    If it still fails to work correctly, please issue the following command from shell:

                    cat /usr/local/pkg/bandwidthd.inc | grep Id

                        Okay, I put some more code in to prevent the blank item.

                        Please try to deinstall and reinstall again.  You should now be on 1.19 of that file.

                              The conf is still not being written out correctly. For example, instead of recover_cdf it needs to be "recover_cdf true".

                                Thanks.  Should be fixed now.  Wait atleast 5 minutes from this message to reinstall.

                                  Wow thats quick. Now it has" recover_cdf on" which still isn't quite right. Also, the draw graphs tickbox seems to have no effect on the conf.

                                      OK now it will start, but I cannot seem to generate any graphs. Has anyone successfully generated any graphs?

                                      I get
                                      "bandwidthd has nothing to graph. This message should be replaced by graphs in a few minutes. If it's not, please see the section titled "Known Bugs and Troubleshooting" in the README"

                                      Also IMO the bandwidthd page should open in a new window.

                                        Yes, but it took about 20 minutes.  Now is the time to be patient :)
