[rancid] New installation

[Steve Ousley]

OK, my second installation of Rancid seemed to be all over the place, so
having simply one firewall on there, I decided to start from scratch.

 

I followed the instructions, and got rancid installed ok, down to point 7
(Run rancid-cvs) no errors.  I then added a firewall to my "asa" group's
router.db in the form: "hostname:cisco:up" and ran rancid-run.

 

Now, the reason that this was restarted was due to it not putting the diffs
into CVS properly, and it seems that is still the case.

 

I have checked the "asa" log and have this:

 

rancid:/usr/local/rancid# cat var/logs/asa.20081006.170446

starting: Mon Oct 6 17:04:46 BST 2008

 

cvs add: in directory `.':

cvs [add aborted]: there is no version here; do `cvs checkout' first

cvs commit: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory

cvs commit: nothing known about `hostname'

cvs [commit aborted]: correct above errors first!

Added hostname

 

cvs status: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory

cvs status: use `cvs add' to create an entry for `hostname'

cvs add: in directory `.':

cvs [add aborted]: there is no version here; do `cvs checkout' first

cvs added missing router hostname

 

 

Trying to get all of the configs.

All routers sucessfully completed.

 

cvs diff: in directory .:

cvs [diff aborted]: there is no version here; run 'cvs checkout' first

cvs commit: in directory .:

cvs [commit aborted]: there is no version here; run 'cvs checkout' first

 

ending: Mon Oct 6 17:05:01 BST 2008

 

in the log file.  I thought that the rancid-cvs command was supposed to
create all of these automatically?  I have my LIST_OF_GROUPS setup as:

 

LIST_OF_GROUPS="switches routers asa pix"

 

So this all looks ok to me.  Anyone have any ideas on this one?
