Hi Steve,
I have done it as advised. In my /root/.clogin I have this syntax for all
our devices:
add user xxx peter
add password xxx password enable password
add method xxx {telnet}
Where are we supposed to add devices (routers) manually?
I have tried to test as rancid user and got this:
/usr/local/rancid/bin/clogin xxx
spawn telnet xxx
Trying xxx...
Connected to xxx (xxx).
Escape character is '^]'.
Cisco Systems Console
Enter password:
Enter password:
Enter password:
Connection closed by foreign host.
spawn ssh -c 3des -x -l rancid xxx
ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
Error: Connection closed (ssh): xxx
What is the root cause of this?
Thanks for your quick reply.
Regards,
Grace

Hi Grace
All you need to do is make the file not writable by anyone except the user
that rancid runs as. You can do this by running the command:
chmod 600 .cloginrc
in the home directory of the user that rancid runs as.

Hello,
I installed and configured rancid properly but when trying to test it with
/usr/local/rancid/bin/clogin xx.xx.xx.xx, I'm getting this error
Error: /root/.cloginrc must not be world readable/writable.
Should not we edit this file?
Need your advice on the .clogin file and where should we add manually all
devices.
Thanks.
Regards,
Grace
