<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>I have now found out that it is
actually like this on ALL pix’s that we have. Any ASA that we have is working
fine, however no pix is updating.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>I have tried running rancid-r
<pix> and that runs, for about 1 second, then finishes, where running
this on an ASA takes approximately 10 seconds. There is however no error on
the command line when I run “rancid –r <pix>”. This is now confusing me
even more! As far as I can tell, rancid is trying to get the pix
configurations, but failing somewhere that I cannot tell. Is there a way to
manually run the process that rancid-run would do in order to try and see if
there’s a problem somewhere?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have had rancid installed a little while now, and am
noticing problems with rancid on one pix (not sure if it’s on more or not, but
this is the only one I can confirm without going through manually checking all
of them).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The problem is that it doesn’t seem to be updating the CVS
repo with the latest configurations.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I do know that we occasionally get problems like this with
pix’s where the ssh connection doesn’t work (usually tell this by running
clogin to the pix) however this manages to ssh in no problems, and gets the
enable prompt, see below:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>[CODE]<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>nagios-1:/usr/local/rancid/var/asa# clogin <firewall><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><firewall><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>spawn ssh -c 3des -x -l <rancid-user> <firewall><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><rancid-user>@<firewall>'s password:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Type help or '?' for a list of available commands.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><firewall>><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><firewall>> enable<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Password: *<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><firewall>#<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>[/CODE]<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>As you can see, this is logging into the pix no problems (I
have changed any instance of the hostname to <firewall> and the rancid
user, and no the password isn’t 1 character long).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Using clogin to log into the firewall, I can also run
various commands successfully (sh run, sh ver etc). However the firewall
still will not update. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Does anyone have any ideas?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have also set the pix to “down” and back to “up” and ran
rancid again, to no avail. This is really confusing me! Since all our
other pix’s seem to be working no problems, <o:p></o:p></p>
