As you can see next, man dir exist.<br>

Check your MANPATH variable in your shell. Or for system-wide
settings, look at /etc/manpath.config (Debian, other distros should
have something similar). If the RANCID man pages are installed in
/usr/local/rancid/man/man*, adding /usr/local/rancid/man to your
MANPATH will fix this. By default man in Debian looks for man pages
in:<br>
/usr/man<br>
/usr/share/man<br>
/usr/local/man<br>
/usr/local/share/man<br>
/usr/X11R6/man<br>
/opt/man<br>
<br>
(Edit your .profile/.bash_profile to set MANPATH or edit the system
files to fix it for everyone.)<br>
<br>
Good luck.<br>
