Interestingly we managed to accidentally get rancid set so that an
Efficient 5871 was set as a cisco.
What resulted was an infinite loop that causes rancid to hang forever
until the telnet to that device is killed.
I wasn't sure if this would be considered a bug, but I thought I'd send
it to this list as an example of this problem, which we've seen several
times.
Example:
Fri 8:58am {rancid at prometheus:[~/bin]} ./clogin 172.28.41.69
172.28.41.69
spawn telnet 172.28.41.69
Trying 172.28.41.69...
Connected to 172.28.41.69.
Escape character is '^]'.
Efficient 5871 IDSL Router (5871-001/2) v5.3.80 Ready
