[rancid] Cisco WLC: Rancid 3.0 add other vendor devices???

[Gavin Jones]

Hi heasley, thanks for you reply I made the changes by using the
semi-colons in the the router.db and used
/usr/local/rancid/etc/rancid.types.conf, however I still have no success.

Here are my exact steps:

/usr/local/rancid/bin/ciscowlc5 wlchostname : logs in and saves the config
fine.

Removed the entry ciscowlc;script;ciscowlc5 from
/usr/local/rancid/etc/rancid.types.base

Added it in: /usr/local/rancid/etc/rancid.types.conf
ciscowlc;script;ciscowlc5

Changed to semi-colons:

vim /usr/local/rancid/var/networking/router.db
wlchost;ciscowlc;up

rancid-run

tail -f var/logs/networking.20140507.10330

Trying to get all of the configs.
Unknown option: t
ciscowlc wlogin error: Error: Unknown host ciscowlc
ciscowlc: missed cmd(s): show sysinfo,show udi,show run-config commands
ciscowlc: End of run not found

Thanks for your time and patience.
