[rancid] Extreme XOS patches for Rancid 2.3.6

[Tim McIntire]

Trying to get rancid 2.3.6 working for my Summit x450s and BD 8810s. I have it working on the cisco and juniper gear I have.

I am running into two problems, one is that I need to disable clipaging on the extreme. The second is that the configuration file that is checked into CVS is blank. I was able to update the xrancid file to add the disable clipaging string to the command string and can run the clogin -c command successfully with the string that xrancid generates, but it still does not create a valid config file for CVS.

I have tried a number of the suggestions that have been posted, but still cannot get it to work. I tried to manually patch the clogin and xrancid files based on the patches that have been posted based on 2.3.3, but still cannot get it to pull the configurations.

Will the patches be included in the mainline or is there an updated patch for 2.3.6?

Has anyone got this to work on 2.3.6?

Thanks..

Tim

we need to make some changes for the newer XOS (or whatever they call
it). asp has started that but hit an expect problem, which is waiting
for me to find time to debug it.

I can't comment on the patches you mention.
