[rancid] hp hlogin failing

No. It's just there. If I press anything, nothing happens. It acts like it's hung. I'm going to upgrade to 3.6 and see if that helps. It was working and then stopped. I don't know what changed.

I run it from the CLI and it sort of works. I get to the command prompt in the switch but then can't enter any commands. If I SSH directly to the switch from the server it works fine.

When you SSH, do you have to press something to see the prompt?


Suggestions? Response from hlogin below.

It looks like RANCID doesn't recognise the prompt, but it seems like it has pressed something.

A quick google suggests a change in 3.5 might be relevant:

"hlogin: when refactoring prompt, eat full lines before looking for the prompt"
