<DIV>Hi,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I've been trying to setup the DRancid extension to back up my Dell PowerConnect N4032 switch stack.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'm using Ubuntu Server 14.04, and Rancid 2.3.8-6. I've been using it to back up Cisco Routers and switches and it has been working great.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I've added the DRancid and Dlogin files to /var/lib/rancid/bin, and modified rancid-fe to include the dell vendor definition.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I can't seem to get it to work through rancid-run.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If I just use dlogin, I can get logged in and enabled, as long as I put a blank enable password. I can pass commands through dlogin and that works as well. If i try to use the autoenable function, it seems to login, but before it enables, it gets stuck or frozen on the command prompt. I cannot enter any commands, and if I hit enter it just goes down to a blank line (no prompt). The only way I can get out of that is to ctrl-c.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The log file shows a dlogin error of TIMEOUT REACHED. Here is the log file:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV><EM><STRONG>Trying to get all of the configs.<BR>defined(%hash) is deprecated at /usr/lib/rancid/bin/drancid line 49.<BR> (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?)<BR>opened network stream from kcfd-hq-iscsi if () at /usr/lib/rancid/bin/drancid line 272.<BR>found_end = 0, clean_run = 0<BR>kcfd-hq-iscsi dlogin error: Error: TIMEOUT reached<BR>kcfd-hq-iscsi: missed cmd(s): show version,show vlan,show running-config<BR>kcfd-hq-iscsi: End of run not found<BR></STRONG></EM>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>It does that for 4 rounds.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'm using the dlogin and drancid from this site. <A href="http://it.thelibrarie.com/weblog/2014/02/rancid-and-dell-switches/comment-page-1/">http://it.thelibrarie.com/weblog/2014/02/rancid-and-dell-switches/comment-page-1/</A></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I tried the one directly from <A href="http://web.rickyninja.net:81/rancid/">http://web.rickyninja.net:81/rancid/</A> and I was getting even more errors.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'm I using a bad copy of the files? I'm not really familiar with github, I tried copying the files from there but just copy/pasting the text, but it said to comment "show vlan" and I couldn't figure out what it was referring to because there was a bunch of those.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Any help or pointers would be appreciated,</DIV>
<DIV>Thanks!</DIV>
