I have an update on this problem.  As you may remember, I saw this
behavior on both FreeBSD-5.1 and -5.2 systems.  On the -5.2 system,
I forced rancid to use ssh instead of telnet.  Since making that
change, I have not seen any of these duplicate characters, and I've
run rancid 15-20 times now which should have been enough.

Reading this:

    http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/usr.bin/telnet/Makefile

makes me wonder if the changes mentioned in 1.22 might have something
to do with this issue.  This could (in theory) explain why no one
could duplicate the problem we saw; perhaps due to our choices during
installation we got a different version of /usr/bin/telnet.

Anyway, the next step is to build a different telnet binary and see
if the behavior changes.  Obviously we can run rancid with ssh instead
of telnet without any problems, but it'd be nice to know *why* this
happened in the first place.

I'd try building a telnet without the crypto goo.  but, i suspect your
problem is more likely to be with it's buffer (ring) handling.

Yep, that'll do what he Axel wants.  Axel - you should look for 
'unexpected' diffs from the routers if you do apply the diff suggested 
above.  I suspect in newer IOSes the problem allured to there may have 
been cleared up, but you never know ;-).

If you run log-analysis software (such as the very powerful and 
recommended SEC (simple event correlator)), you can setup a rule to 
trigger RANCID (just for that device) when the log line coming from your 
router indicating that a particular device has had its configuration 
modified is seen.  SEC can auto-dampen the triggering of these events to 
avoid over-eager spawning of rancid collections.  I'd recommend this if 
you have the time - it's a good thing(tm).  It tends to encourage 
engineers not to idly jump in and out of config mode, too, if they know 
rancid is being triggered. :-)

I think that this may check/filter may be a little antiquated, though
was left for older IOSs.  can't say without checking deeply.

I suspect that if you also at least remove lines 1141 and 1143, you'll
have what you seek.

   1139         if (/^(##+$|(Building|Current) configuration)/i) {
   1140             while (<INPUT>) {
   1141                 next if (/^Current configuration\s*:/i);
   1142                 next if (/^:/);
   1143                 next if (/^([%!].*|\s*)$/);
   1144                 next if (/^ip add.*ipv4:/);     # band-aid for 3620 12.0
S           
   1145                 last;
   1146             }

Though, Andrew's last reply seems like a rather slick method; triggering
rancid runs.

oops, you'll also have to remove this:

        # skip consecutive comment lines to avoid oscillating extra comment
        # line on some access servers.  grrr.
        if (/^!/) {
            next if ($comment);

            $comment++;
            next;
        }

or change that to

I'm getting a lot of these on my Cisco Catalyst 2950 during every single 
rancid-run update.  These are worthless diffs as there aren't any 
changes in configuration but changes in port status.

  I know this one 8-)

  I bet you have people accessing the switches with different terminal 
width settings in their terminal programs. The VTY picks this up as part
of telnet option negotiations. Since RANCID is a non-interactive session
to the switch, it doesn't negotiate width.

  Try this patch for clogin (you'll probably need to apply it manually):

I dont have any, but some (sorry forgot the name) helped debug it.  It
should work with those that have the menu option in rancid-2.3.

be forewarned, that while 2.3 is up for ftp, it was not announced since
there seemse to be an issue w/ older expect versions and regexes and o/s
mixes.  Thus far, pre 5.40 seems broken, though I have not tried 5.39.
Should not affect those not interested in CatOS or clogin -x...

The cat1900 section of my .cloginrc looks like this.
add password 172.18.1.13 k xxxxpassword
add passprompt 172.18.1.13 Enter Selection:

Rancid logs in OK ... and gets to the enable command prompt # (see attached
file)

On the cat 1900's there is no write term command , only show running-config,
and you have to hit the space bar between pages.


When I run /bin/rancid-run .. It hangs...
The log file makes it reasonably obvious why (I think !) , it's waiting for
write term to complete.. A command that isn't on the 1900's.

I notice in /bin/rancid that the last command is write term.

I don't know why some config isn't captured by the show running-config
(rancid has created the placeholder config file.. But it's empty ..)

I'm reluctant to start hacking /bin/rancid (ie remove the write term
command) - as the ios routers,cat55's and alteons are all working just
fine...

any ideas ?

Thanks,
Darren.

hello,

i was wondering if anyone had put together some awk or perl scripts to
generate a report showing an 'executive readable' summary of the changes
that rancid has tracked...

the output format would be a .csv with columns like this:
device_name device_type change_date change(s)

i know that it can be done, but before i go and try to reinvent the 
wheel [tm], i thought i would ask if anyone was willing to share. :)
if not, it will be a good opportunity to improve my awk skills

thanks

not sure I understand, isn't cvsweb.cgi or the similars good for you ?
it has "Age" column that can indicate last change date (at least ViewCVS
does)

check out rat/ncat - cisco specific out of the box, they work well.
google around for a sample ncat.conf file

yuval,

i use cvsweb or viewcvs, but the key term in my request was:

hence the need for the ability to dump it out in to a text file that can
then be parsed to populate a spreadsheet

I and a friend have written a script that uses the clogin script to hit
multiple devices.  You provide a file with the changes you wish applied
to all routers/switches and another file with a list of all devices, it
then goes out and does all the changes you wish, would anyone be
interested in such a script and is there a place that I could put it for
everyone to use.

I.e. you are saving 9 characters ... Maybe something more general that
processes a file with lines like "list of commands<SEP>list of devices"
would be more useful though it's also a no-brainer (just have the
command wrapped in a while command).

I.e. you are saving 9 characters ... Maybe something more general that
processes a file with lines like "list of commands<SEP>list of devices"
would be more useful though it's also a no-brainer (just have the

iirc, ISC folks wrote some rancid-output groveling scripts which may give
you a head-start.

john,

yes they did - i'll dig through the tool-maker's archives today, and
maybe ask on that list...but joe abley's scripts are a great start

thanks

A common mistake that people make when trying to design something 
completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete
fools.

Hello --

I was wondering if anybody had any experience or pointers for somebody
trying to begin creating RANCID modules for other types of networking
equipment. I've looked at the code base, and I'm not really able to make
heads or tails of how it all works. Thanks for any help you could
provide.
