Does the rancid account need Read Only or Read/Write access to dump
out the configs.

I notice the wr term command is used so does this mean Read/Write is required?

write term is just an other way of saying "show running-config". rancid
doesn't modify the config during the backup run. What it does modify are
the per session settings like terminal size and to not log to the console.
