[rancid] Re: problem with Cat OS Devices

[Shlomo Dubrowin]

Michael,

Thank you for that tip, I realized that some of my CatOS devices need
their prompts "fixed."

However, after several hours of tinkering and searching, it appears
that several of my CatOS devices are being backed up.  Meaning, I have
files for them in
~/rancid/var/GROUP/configs/router
but I don't see the configs in CVS.  Any idea why cvs isn't being
updated with the config files? and more importantly, how to fix it?

Thank you

  Shlomo
