[rancid] Re: Device not issuing and "End"

[Sam Stickland]

In my quick glance at the source code this has puzzled me. It looks like 
RANCID either looks for a specific line to mark the end of the config, 
or in some cases (i.e. Content Engines) it just believes that if it gets 
more than 4 lines it's complete.

Is there any reason it doesn't look for the prompt to re-appear? Does 
this not work in all cases?
