> I just implemented their scripts, replacing very old custom hack-jobs I put together years ago, using some other existing login scripts as a base. Their scripts handle the prompts better than my legacy code.<br>
> <br>
> I have successfully tested their code on ~150 OpenGear console servers of various models (IM7200, IM4xxx, CMx) and on various software versions - 3.16 through 4.5<br>
> <br>
> There are some tweaks I made, like running their show version code first. And that line is not commented out in the resulting output file. But beyond that, it works fine.<br>
> <br>
> Would it be possible for their code to be reviewed and merged with official rancid source for easier future use?<br>

<br>
sure. I've asked them for permission.<br>
<br>
It will have to be brought up to date with the current code and I will need<br>
your (and/or other's) help to test those changes.<br>
