[rancid] Netscaler 10.5 prompt

[Brandon Ewing]

Greetings,

Does anyone have a working patch for nslogin that can successfully find the
prompt in 10.5? It looks like they changed the prompt again to
"hostname time user>" instead of "^>|#". Not sure if there's a widget in
the config to change this behavior, either.

Checked the RPMs from RHEL6/7, they don't work.

Latest source also appears to be looking for "^>" as well.

As a further piece of weirdness, if you log in as a TACACS user, it's the
old "> " prompt. If you log in as nsroot, you get the long prompt.

Hey Brandon,

My script writing skills are pretty bad BUT I managed to get an old copy of
nslogin that was floating around to work with NS9.3 Build 56.5. The prompt
I was testing with also displayed in a similar fashion to what you
described.

It's been awhile but it literally involved me commenting out some stuff
about the prompt. I'm sure this broke other things for nslogin but it's
worked well enough for my ONE netscaler. Feel free to give it a shot.

Best,

Tim
