[rancid] Re: Rancid Reports Config Changes when none have taken place

[Shane Kavanagh]

Hi, Jose

Thanks for the input, there seems to be no pattern to the event, unless I
run rancid-run manually then I am guaranteed to get this error. however it
seems to be from missing "," (commas) in the example below after FA 1/0/8
the cisco devices reports a comma after it but the archived version does not
have this comma but then later on I get the reverse. I wonder if its the
Cisco device going different reports, however the more I look into it, the
more I can see all my devices been affected.

- !VLAN: 4    server                           active    Fa1/0/1, Fa1/0/2,
Fa1/0/4, Fa1/0/5, Fa1/0/6, Fa1/0/7, Fa1/0/8, Fa1/0/9, Fa1/0/10, Fa1/0/11,
Fa1/0/12, Fa1/0/13, Fa1/0/15, Fa1/0/16, Gi1/0/2
