[rancid] xrrancid on cisco IOS-XR

[Bryan]

I am still having issues w/rancid backing up cisco IOS-XR.  This is version Cisco IOS XR Software, Version 3.9.0[00].  I using the patched expect strait from the ftp on shrubbery site.  I can run “xrrancid –d myrouter” and the config is download completely to the current working directory.  However if I let rancid run it normally or do a “rancid-run mygroup” only have the config is downloaded before I get “Connection closed by foreign host.” right in the middle of the config.  At the top of the config I get “RANCID-CONTENT-TYPE: cisco-xr” and according to what commands are being run I don’t understand why I can run it manually and it work but letting rancid run it and it only downloads part of the config.  Both runs manually and automatically are using the same user and same ENV variables.  When it stops in the middle it doesn’t always stop at the same spot (same length).  I can “rancid-run ASR” 5 times and 3 of the times it stop in the same spot and 2 times it stop a few lines before or after.  Any help would be appreciated.
