[rancid] Rancid problem using h3c switches

[Ugo Bellavance]

Hi,

We've been using Rancid for our Cisco and Procurve switches, and since we
bought a pair of H3C s5800, I'd like to use rancid for them as well.

I followed the instructions here
http://sites.google.com/site/jrbinks/code/rancid/h3c (thanks Jethro) and
then I edited h3clogin to make sure the shebang pointed to the right
location of expect. But I can't get it to work yet.

Here is what I get for the h3clogin command:

[***@rancid bin]$ h3clogin -autoenable -t 5 -c "dis device" switch1
atq-irf-1.atqlan.agri-tracabilite.qc.ca
spawn ssh -c 3des -x -l manager switch1
***@switch1's password:

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

I'll send you a new version privately, although I've never tested on S5800
I expect it should work.
