<P><SPAN class=906272614-14062007>I've seen several reports by others having
this same problem, but have yet to find a report of cause and resolution.
RANCID was working fine for weeks, then started dropping "wr term" from the runs
in an apparently random, though semi-permanent, fashion. Once this problem
hits, it doesn't seem to go away. The nodes in question are Cisco
IOS.</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN class=906272614-14062007>My suspicion is that it is resource problem on
the rancid server. Suspicions don't count for much, though. Can
someone shed some light on the issue?</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN class=906272614-14062007>Sample log is shown below. Notice that
in this case, the 10.y.z.20 seems to run OK, but the first two fail. They
fail consistently from the scheduled runs. Manual clogin runs to the
specific nodes have no </SPAN><SPAN class=906272614-14062007>apparent
problem. Unfortunately, I know of no way to get the manual run to do the
full diff and CVS archive.</SPAN></P>
