<p class=MsoNormal>Hi All<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>We have just got some Cisco 2960 switches that we need to
backup. However when the backup runs on the switch, it simply misses the
commands.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I think I know why this is, and that is that when I log in
with clogin, it logs in ok, and automatically displays the configuration,
rather than waiting for Rancid to collect it. This also has problems with
paging int hat when I clogin I see “—more—“at the
bottom as though it’s waiting for me to press space or enter, yet, when I
press anything, it just sits there until the connection times out.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Has anyone ever got a 2960 backing up ok? If so, did they
experience this as well?<o:p></o:p></p>
