Hi,

We have Cisco 1200/ 1130 Access Points running IOS. I've got RANCID up and
running and everything appears to be OK except the diff command on the
flash. For whatever reason the timestamp on the flash files changes by a
matter of seconds:

Subsequently, every time RANCID is executed a diff in the flash is found on
router.db device and a 1Mb config diff file is emailed out. I've commented
out all dir and show flash commands in the @commandtable section of the
/usr/local/rancid/bin/rancid file but it is still emailing diffs in the
flash. Anyone got any suggestions?

Paul,

I have RANCID ignore the flash as it has no real relevance to me. You
can comment it out in you bin/rancid script file where it mentions
commands. Look for ShowRun that should help you find the area I am
talking about. It is in an array toward the bottom.
