> you'll probably have to (or want to) for clogin into something like soniclogin so that it can do what is necessary to get the login prompt determination right. (see also the paloalto login script)
> And you'll want a forked rancid from one of the other examples like urancid that sends the right sets of commands. Urancid for ubiquiti devices is a pretty simple and good one to copy, or the fortinet one.

there is a rancid FAQ entry on extending rancid.  please read that too.

the ubiquity stuff is native now, btw.  I think it might need a tweak or
two for some devices that I did not have access to.

I can get clogin to authenticate to the device, but it immediately sends the password a second time after login, so the sonicwall sees it as a command, and returns an error.  I'm guessing it's my lack of understanding of Clogin, but after reading documentation, I still can't figure it out.  Thanks in advance to anyone who can help. I have tried adding a timeout value, and playing with the -noenable option, but to no avail.
