currently, for frr systems,
o i use `zebra` in the `router.db` definition
o the rancid user on the target is ssh keyed (with command
restriction)
o the `/etc/passwd` entry for rancid has the shell defined as
`/home/rancid/do-vtysh`
o that script simply does `sudo /bin/vtysh`
and that works for the `show running config`
but i would also like to capture, archive, and diff
o `/etc/network/interfaces` and
o `/etc/nftables.conf`
do i hack the `/home/rancid/do-vtysh` script to simply `cat` them to
stdout? i dread creating a new, or augmenting existing, rancid device
type.
