[rancid] Rancid does not recive configuration from cisco device

[Serge Torop]

Hello, all,

I have new installation of Rancid (v 3.1) on Centos 6 from rpm packet.

After rancid.conf (see below) has configured I run rancid-cvs, the output
is:

[***@blade11 ciscodev]$ /usr/libexec/rancid/rancid-cvs

Committed revision 1.
Checked out revision 1.
At revision 1.

Committed revision 2.

Then I have created /var/rancid/ciscodev/router.db

[***@blade11 ciscodev]$ cat /var/rancid/ciscodev/router.db
10.37.6.46:cisco:up

and run rancid-run (without any output messages), in log file I see:

[***@blade11 ciscodev]$ cat /var/log/rancid/ciscodev.20151102.170455
starting: Mon Nov 2 17:04:55 MSK 2015

ending: Mon Nov 2 17:04:56 MSK 2015

and again:

Sending router.db
Transmitting file data .
Committed revision 13.

ending: Mon Nov 2 17:18:09 MSK 2015

* I recived email with content:

​​​​​Routers changed to down:
10.37.6.46:cisco:up

Added routers:
10.37.6.46:cisco:up

Everything is fine, but I don't see downloaded configuration files after
re-run rancid-run in each conf-directory


[***@blade11 ciscodev]$ ls -la /var/rancid/ciscodev/configs/
total 12
drwxr-x---. 3 rancid rancid 4096 Nov 2 17:02 .
drwxr-x---. 4 rancid rancid 4096 Nov 2 17:18 ..
drwxr-x---. 6 rancid rancid 4096 Nov 2 17:04 .svn

Test commands:

clogin -t 90 -c "show version" -f /var/rancid/.cloginrc 10.37.6.46
and
rancid -t cisco -d 10.37.6.46

working fine (login is ok and configuration downloading from device
to 10.37.6.46.raw is ok).

Can you give me any suggestions what is wrong in my configuration and why i
do not see
original configuration from my cisco device?

Also some strange content of file /var/rancid/ciscodevs/routers.down:
10:37.6.46:cisco:up

Thank you in advance!

^ ^

in rancid 3+ these separators are ";" and not ":"


The reason is that a colon clashes with IPv6 addresses in field 1

that should not be - please provide details. junos is, without a doubt, the
most stable cli from a ranicd PoV.
