There was some discussion of this on the list last week, but not a fix 
yet. I sent some debugging info off list to heasley as well.

I have unpredictable behavior between my boxes. I have RANCID set to run 
hourly. On a rare occasion (once every two days?) one will run all of a 
sudden over night when no one has made any changes to anything. A few 
others have never had a successful run.
