[rancid] .cloginrc - problem with password

[Paolo De Michele]

hi list,
I have problems to authenticate my cisco router with passwordi to enable.

the scenario is as follows:
- authentication password has special characters, uppercase letters,
lowercase letters and numbers
- enable password has capital letters, lowercase letters and numbers

my .cloginrc is:

add method {ssh}
add user 10.0.0.3 username
add userpassword 10.0.0.3 {P-------l----3--------@}
add enauser 10.0.0.3 {L------x-x-0----l-------}

I also tried:


add method {ssh}
add user 10.0.0.3 username
add userpassword 10.0.0.3 {P-------l----3--------@}
{L------x-x-0----l-------}



the problem is that I am logging to the router but not in enable.
something wrong in the syntax of the file. cloginrc?
I look forward to your help
thanks in advance

- authentication password has special characters, uppercase letters,
lowercase letters and numbers

see the cloginrc(5) manpage for dealing with special characters, the
format of userpassword and enauser and autoenable.

now, my .cloginrc is:

add method * {ssh}
add user * {-------------}
add userpassword * {Pxxxxxxxxxx3xxxxx@}
add passprompt {"L-----------------c3------"}

from console:

***@10.x.x.x's password:

cxxxxxx>enable
Password:
Password:
Password:
% Bad secrets

I am sure that the enable password I put is correct, but I don't
understand where I'm wrong syntax

add user 10.0.0.3 username
add enauser 10.0.0.3 {L------x-x-0----l-------}
add method {ssh}
add user 10.0.0.3 username
{L------x-x-0----l-------}
the problem is that I am logging to the router but not in enable.

Hi,

Try just with add password.
As per the clogin sample file

<snip>

# add userpassword <router name glob> <user password>
# The password for user if different than the password set
# using 'add password'.

</snip>

Cheers,

Gareth

Hi,

userpassword is only used if the password is different to the password set by the add password option.

so change "add userpassword" to "add password"

Cheers,

Gareth

Do you perhaps have a global setting somewhere else in your clogin file as you only have an entry for 10.0.0.3
and not 10.0.0.6 which you are getting the error from.

Cheers,

Gareth

add user 10.0.0.3 xxxxxxxxxx
Permission denied, please try again.
Error: Check your passwd for 10.0.0.6
excuse me, but I don't understand where I'm wrong
are inexperienced and if I don't go out in this point are completely blocked. Thanks again

It is not a problem of global settings

why?

I'm willing to bet that the '@' is tripping you up. Try escaping it
with a backslash ('\@' instead of '@') in the password portion of your
~/.cloginrc. I've run into that before.
