<p class=MsoNormal>OK, my second installation of Rancid seemed to be all over
the place, so having simply one firewall on there, I decided to start from
scratch.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I followed the instructions, and got rancid installed ok,
down to point 7 (Run rancid-cvs) no errors. I then added a firewall to my “asa”
group’s router.db in the form: “hostname:cisco:up” and ran
rancid-run.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Now, the reason that this was restarted was due to it not
putting the diffs into CVS properly, and it seems that is still the case.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have checked the “asa” log and have this:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>in the log file. I thought that the rancid-cvs command was
supposed to create all of these automatically? I have my LIST_OF_GROUPS setup
as:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#943634'>LIST_OF_GROUPS="switches
