[rancid] Nortel Passport

[Nico De Ranter]

Hi,

I'm trying to make Rancid 2.3.1 work with a Nortel Passport 8600. I've
had a look at the archives and found a lot of references to Nortel
however I still can't make it work. I did find Tony's patches for blogin
and brancid that look very promising however they seem to be for another
version of rancid as I can't apply them to my version. I tried manually
making most changes but I think I'm missing something crucial.

When I run

./passlogin -c 'show config' azur

manually I notice the output gets cut off somewhere near the end of the
config output. I get

--------------------------------------------------
#
# VRRP
Connection closed by foreign host.
--------------------------------------------------

While if I run a 'show config' manually on the router it goes on for
about 20 more lines and ends with

--------------------------------------------------
#
# NAAP CONFIGURATION
#



back
--------------------------------------------------

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks in advance,

Nico

probably hanging on a pager.

expect -d ./passlogin -c 'show config' azur
