[rancid] Rancid-discuss Digest, Vol 55, Issue 6

Sun May 10 02:19:54 UTC 2015

Hi All,

I found the same problem.

Previously I used ";" instead of ":" on router.db,and some config files were recovered.

But still,some configs could not be found ,either.

And,these are "Dell" & "F5" devices. 

Please help.

Thanks,
Kevin

Fresh install, Rancid is pulling configs now.  I've got the main.cf settings for the relayhost, and postfix is running.  However I get no mail after rancid-run is processed.  Postfix does work when telnet mailing.. since there's no postfix or mail related entries in the rancid logs where can I look for this? 

Thanks 
Ben

This is the exact problem I had and Kenneth set me straight. 

in your routers.db file make sure you use a ; in stead of a : so for example 

bobsrouter.bobu.edu<http://bobsrouter.bobu.edu>;juniper;up 

the normal method previously was to use a : but that no longer does the trick.  You'llhave the exact symptoms that you're expressing. 

Thanks 

Scott

So I followed the setup here: http://ciscoskills.net/2015/01/03/install-rancid-and-viewvc-on-centos-7/ 
I get no errors, the log files are empty after each rancid-run.  However clogin x.x.x.x connected, enables and gives me an ssh prompt, responded to commands like sh run.  This is indeed on CentOS 7, rancid 3.2. 
Thanks
