I am thinking about a solution to do config changes on many hosts with cfengine. See cfengine.com. Software under GPL.

With this solution it should be possible to automate changes on many (!) cisco devices.

Since nobody sponsors this work I have to do it in my spare time. So it can be a while until I will finish this work. Sorry.

Thanks for the idea, Michael. We also have others software alternatives to do that, but it's little bit messy.

So I want to know if anybody knows if the way that clogin--2.3.1 handle the prompt/banner can be implemented/fixed at the cloing--2.3.6.

Best regards,
Carlos.
