Is there a way to disable the actual frontend (menu) but still be able to get the graphs giving the correct URL?

e.g.:a "GET http://myserver/cgi-bin/routers2.cgi" would produce an error message but a
"GET http://myserver/cgi-bin/routers2.cgi?rt ... lid_target"
would create the appropriate graph

How can I go about this? Any ideas?

In the routers2.conf try adding the following:

allowexplore = if
twinmenu = no

this will suppress the Devices menu, although the Targets menu will still be there. Use 'allowexplore = no' to disable the Targets menu as well.

Then, try to have

defaultrouter = none

so that the default page is nothnig. Then, there will be no way to find the pages except to give the rtr=... parameter, although you can still define multiple users where some of them have allowexplore=yes

(update)
Checking the code, I find that this second part does not work because it realises there is no device called 'none', although rtr=none does work. It's too clever for its own good. The patch is very simple and will be correctly included in 2.16beta4, or email me directly if you cant wait.

(further update)
This still does not prevent you from using the Preferences screen. I'll fix this and get back.
