I agree with Bob, more information would be helpful to assist with your problem. What version of software is your Fortigate running? What have you tried to resolve your problem so far? Do want to send you the same steps that you might have already done.

I have Both Fotrigate 300C and 100D in house. I had version 2.3.8 running prior to the Fortigates being installed though. We have FortiGate 5.0.1 (build 147) on the 300C and 5.0.2 (build 179) on our 100D.

Charles,

Key to debugging login errors is to ensure that your environment since upgrade has stayed the same for authentication.

I have no knowledge specific to fortigate, but make sure you make use of the debugging switches to see what happening with the device login.

Expect has wonderful debugging switches on its own, and all output can be logged.

Unfortunately you don't list what you have tried, so it makes it hard for us to give anything but general advice. Granted, that there may be something peculiar to the device, but this can generally be captured by using the EXPECT exp_internal switches.

Cheers,

I hope someone can assist me.

I have recently upgraded to rancid 2.3.8 and this seems to have broken the Fortigate module.
Cisco devices still work and I am able to manually login to Fortigate devices using clogin.

When I run the full rancid-run I get the following in the logfile:

Trying to get all of the configs.
ftg1-universal fnlogin error: Error: Couldn't login: ftg1-universal
ftg1-universal: missed cmd(s): show full-configuration,get system status
0: found end
ftg1-universal: End of run not found
etc.....

I'm getting to the end of my tether on this one and don't want to have to degrade to an earlier version.
Has anybody been experiencing the same ?
