Yes, Orca without RRDtool just won't work :)  The Orca configure  
script will ignore the --without-RRDtool command line option.

Looking through start_orca_services, it's looking to talk to a RADIUS  
server.

sub init_radius {
   my ($db,$user,$pass) = @_;

     use DBI;

     $RADdbh   = DBI->connect($db,$user,$pass);
     if(!$RADdbh) {
         print "Connect error $DBI::errstr\n";
         return 1;
     }


BTW, the start_orca_services is not the script that starts Orca.   
Orca_services is a separate data gathering tool, much like orcallator  
and procallator.  So I'm guessing that's not what you want to be  
running, unless you explicitly set it up.
