I believe many of those linux scripts you're trying to use only work locally.

Turn the polling level in cacti to debug (Settings | Polling level) for one cycle and paste the output of the actual log file (./cacti/log/cacti.log). If it contains WEBLOG entries, then don't bother posting since they just clutter up the log. Turn off WEBEVENTS logging and try again.

You did not read what I said.

Open up each script and look what it does. Then you'll understand if it works on remote machines.

Installing net-snmp on the linux machines is your best bet for data collection.

Using Getif or snmpwalk against the linux machine, do you get valid results?
Does cacti think the host is up?

!!!!!

As I stated before, use either GetIF (Google it) or net-snmp snmpwalk against the linux machine and see if snmp is working.
