[rancid] .cloginrc add method hostname {ssh:-port} for mtlogin/mtrancid?

[Michael Newton]

Yes it does; we are pulling configs from remote client sites via NAT, not local machines, so we want the port number in the file name anyway.

 If you’re looking to connect to a custom port number, this is what we do. Not sure if you can use it or not, but thought it might help someone.
 
 /var/rancid/foo/router.db:
 host.example.com:2222;hp;up;HP switch 22
 
 host.example.com:3222;aruba;up;Aruba switch 32

indeed, if your client supports that.  but the port will appear in the
RCS filename, if i am not mistaken.
