Dear All,

I am facing a problem while using RANCID for certain set of Cisco devices.
I have a set of devices to which I have only limited access and do not have
the enable passwords.
I have created new rancid and clogin scripts named cwrancid and cwlogin.
I am not able to run rancid for these devices; I have hashed all the
commands on cwrancid except "show startup-config".
When I use cwlogin to directly attempt on my TestRouter, I am able to
complete successfully.
Logs appended below.

Appreciate help from the fraternity since I have exhausted my skills. :)

Cheers!!!
Sreekanth.
