[rancid] new RANCID code for Vyatta

Anyone out there using Vyatta boxes and wants to put them into RANCID?

Currently, the only people I've seen doing this are using the wrapper
rancid and ssh'ing the config file in themselves.

I'm putting together a more RANCID-like solution that runs Vyatta CLI
commands via non-interactive ssh (requires public key authentication),
and it fetches the running config so you will be able to track unsaved
changes.  So far it does this:

  show version
  show hardware dmi
  show hardware pci
  show hardware cpu
  show configuration commands

If you have a Vyatta and would like to try this out, please email
me off-list.  I'll post the code to the list when it stabilizes.
