[rancid] clogin query

[Chris Kilian]

Hi all

I have my rancid working almost totally correctly now with the exception of a few things. I have some devices that although they answer to ssh they are using a different port to 22, in the .clogin.rc file I have all the devices listed as

Add methos x.x.x.x {ssh}

Looking at the documentation it seems to say that you can use {ssh:-port} to specify a different port however when I do that I am getting the below in the log files.

Hostname fnlogin error: Error: unknown connection method: ssh:-822

Anyone got any ideas?



Kind Regards

try it without the dash - ie. {ssh:822}

Hi,

I think this should work;



add sshcmd x.x.x.x {ssh -p 822}

assuming that your rancid is recent enough, I dont recall off the top
of my head when this was added, this should work if your ssh uses - for
the port. the - is usually only for some variations of BSD's telnet
client.

Hi,

Since I upgraded to rancid 2.3.4 I receive (not always but very often)
this kind of empty emails:

"Routers changed to down:"


Only that, specially when a run this:

rancid-run ­r router group


I run this command after each change in a switch so I receive a lot of
empty emails.


Any tip to fix this ?

Thanks
