that is good news and good advice, thank you. Its a pretty hard read but it
pretty much feels like rancid gets lost after it logs in? I upgraded to
Rancid 3.2, but it didn't help :(

[rancid at localhost bin]$ ./hlogin -d -c "show ver" 10.10.0.99
10.10.0.99
spawn hpuifilter -- telnet 10.10.0.99
parent: waiting for sync byte
parent: telling child to go ahead
parent: now unsynchronized from child
spawn: returns {6380}

passphrase.*: "? Gate "Enter passphrase*: "? gate=no

Error: TIMEOUT reached
