<P class=MsoNormal>Hi<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>I have just installed RANCID on my machine, and have it
collecting data from one firewall. What I would like is some kind of
differential on this however as it seems to simply overwrite the old
configuration with the new one.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>I have read the documentation that I can find, and cannot see
anything about keeping old versions of the log files. The reason for
wanting this is that the firewall config often gets changed and there is the
possible requirement that we will need to roll back the config a few
days.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Many thanks for any help anyone can provide.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
