<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Anybody running a configuration
management system that checks the same things is going to log the change, <br>
it just so happens that rancid is particularly complete about checking for
differences.<br>
<br>
For that matter, rancid isn't really a full-fledged configuration management
system, but most of what anyone really<br>
wants to use one for is encompassed in rancid's functionality. Any
functioning configuration differ that is as complete<br>
as rancid would pick up the changes, it just so happens that most people don't
run one, or look at the diffs, because<br>
the rest of them don't email out the changes like rancid does out of the box.<br>
<br>
I haven't noticed, FWIW, the same behavior in the 7.2.4 branch.<br>

<p class=MsoNormal>I opened my case with TAC last week and asked for it to be
escalated to<br>
the DE folks. My TAC engineer ran the case up the flagpole for me and<br>
this issue is now acknowledged to be and is officially logged as a bug.<br>
The BugID is CSCsz85597.<br>
<br>
<a
href="http://tools.cisco.com/Support/BugToolKit/search/getBugDetails.do?method=fetchBugDetails&bugId=CSCsz85597"
target="_blank">http://tools.cisco.com/Support/BugToolKit/search/getBugDetails.do?method=fetchBugDetails&bugId=CSCsz85597</a><br>
<br>
My engineer suggested downgrading to the latest 8.0.4 interim release as<br>
a temporary workaround while the DE folks address the bug and work it<br>
into a maintenance release, hopefully for 8.2. It should be a really<br>
simple fix so hopefully it doesn't take too long. The engineer said<br>
that at least one other person is now attached to this bug and they too<br>
were running RANCID.<o:p></o:p></p>
