Are they not processed one per time?
the routers.all contains 672 entries, routers.up -> 572.

The installation is old. The only I've edited a while ago was add the "out of band" access via 
"usercmd" "usercmd_chat" options. Is this availabe in the last release?
So I could update.

Because I've some devices I've edited and the differences are not saved, even if they should be 
processed. They are in the routers.all db. Only if I call the script for a single device it works:

bin/rancid-run -r <device_name> <repo_name>

Then, I've edited temporary rancid-fe to enable dedug:

(...)
} else {
     exec($vendortable{$vendor} . " -d $router");
}
(...)

This logs me all the HIT commands as well the command that is executed to contact the device.
At a certain point I get:

HIT COMMAND:<my_device>#write term
     In WriteTerm: <my_device>#write term
sh: cisco: command not found
sh: cisco: command not found
(...line repeated many times..)
=====================================
Getting missed routers: round 1.

sh: cisco: command not found

EOF


Thanks for the help,
