[rancid] Re: missed cmd issues - "wr term"

[Lance]

I have had this same problem and a while back had a rather lengthy email
chain going. I had all the pathes and to no avail I was just out of
luck. I finally concluded it had to do with the OS as I never had this
issue with FreeBSD. I did however have different results with telnet vs
SSH. 

I wish I had an answer to this other than to tell you to switch to
FreeBSD and all your problems should go far far away.
