[rancid] Re: clogin error

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
