Hi Sylvian,

We had the same problems and I had to patch clogin.in and xrancid.in:

arjan at reddwarf:~$ lsdiff
rancid-2.3.3/debian/patches/26_extremexos.dpatch 
rancid-2.3.3/bin/clogin.in
rancid-2.3.3/bin/xrancid.in

Attached is my patch for 2.3.3, maybe you could try it? 
It works for us with quite a collection of Extremeware and ExtremeXos
versions.

BTW, to the rest of the list how can I get this patch included in the
default tarball of RANCID?

Greetings Arjan
