[rancid] Setting up Rancid on FreeBSD 10.1

[Andrew S. Meyer]

Hi everyone,
I seem to be having some difficulty getting rancid to send emails on FBSD 10.1 using postfix or sendmail (built-in).  I have configured postfix to relay to another mail server in my setup but doesn't seem to do it when I have the rancid cronjob setup to run.  Although if I run the following command uname -a | mail -s "`uname -n`: Test mail config" user at tld.com<mailto:user at tld.com> it works just fine.  I can run this command as any user and it works, but the automated emails do not for the rancid user.  Has anyone else run into this?  If so how do you fix it?  I'm almost done with my rancid setup.

Here is my postfix config

As for rancid - here is what I have setup:


LIST_OF_GROUPS="NetworkDevices"
MAILDOMAIN="@borg.local"; export MAILDOMAIN

I have run rancid-cvs to set it all up.

Here is the crontab for rancid.  I have it setup to check and email me so often to do some testing.  I DO plan to change this once completed:

[rancid at monitoring1 ~]$ crontab -l
1,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * /usr/local/bin/rancid-run #hourly router dump
1,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * /usr/bin/find /usr/local/var/rancid/logs -type -f -mtime +2 -exec rm -rf {} \;
[rancid at monitoring1 ~]$

Also,
Has anyone started using Rancid 3.0 yet?  If so how hard is it to setup?
