Subject: [rancid] Pointing existing rancid from local svn repo to remote svn
Message-ID: <AANLkTimAiZ=P-z30jS6PaW8NTjVc8pAb3NbKOYQY1Y70@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

   Is this simply altering the BASEDIR=/"local repo" to BASEDIR="/
https://x.x.x.x/repo, or Is there more to this?

Thank you

Subject: [rancid] Problems collecting configs
Message-ID: <4B8F703AAAD8294EB73E10DFCBBDF15980E3A9@FMAIL-CCR.synetrixhl.local>

Hi All,

Has anyone come across this please as I have no clue where to start.

We have 2 system which have just started to play up they used to collect configs now only the following for each device and no config info.

Currently collected config:

!RANCID-CONTENT-TYPE: cisco
!
!Chassis type: 7206VXR - a 7200 router
!CPU: NPE-G1, SB-1 CPU at 700Mhz, impl 1025, Rev 0.2, 512KB L2 Cache
!
!Memory: main 983040K/65536K
!Memory: nvram 509K
!Memory: bootflash 16384K
!Memory: pcmcia ATA slot2 125952K
!
!Processor ID: 33288040
!
!Power: Power Supply 1 is Zytek AC Power Supply. Unit is on.
!Power: Power Supply 2 is Zytek AC Power Supply. Unit is on.

!Image: Software: C7200-K91P-M, 12.2(25)S5, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)
!Image: Compiled: Thu 23-Jun-05 03:38 by ccai
!Image: disk2:c7200-k91p-mz.122-25.S5.bin

!
!Variable: BOOT variable = disk2:c7200-k91p-mz.122-25.S5.bin,1;
!Variable: CONFIG_FILE variable does not exist
!Variable: BOOTLDR variable does not exist


When I do a clogin <device fqdn> to the device it works perfectly and I can then do a showrun and it lists the config perfectly

Checking the logs for the automated run I can see I keep getting stuff like

!

Subject: [rancid] custom command, need help with pipe
Message-ID: <AANLkTi=sXqEEXfiN-vkjz2UHYL7CiQXQyWwaffsdscD3@mail.gmail.com>

Hello. I'm trying to write a custom command to store the output of
'show int status | inc trunk'. It seems to work OK without the pipe
and "inc trunk", so I assume something is eating the pipe (|)
character. How should I escape it properly?

This is what I have, and it isn't working (missed cmd(s)).. can
somebody point me in the right direction?


{'show int status | inc trunk'  => 'ShowIntTrunk'},


sub ShowIntTrunk {
    print STDERR "    In ShowIntTrunk: $_" if ($debug);
    my($lines) = 0;

    while (<INPUT>) {
        tr/\015//d;
        last if (/^$prompt/);
        next if (/^(\s*|\s*$cmd\s*)$/);
        return(1) if /Line has invalid autocommand /;
        return(1) if /(Invalid input detected|Type help or )/;
        return(-1) if (/command authorization failed/i);
        # the pager can not be disabled per-session on the PIX
        if (/^(<-+ More -+>)/) {
            my($len) = length($1);
            s/^$1\s{$len}//;
        }

        /^No matching debug flags set$/ && next;
        ProcessHistory("COMMENTS","keysort","J1","!TRUNK: $_");
        $lines++;
    }
    if ($lines) {
        ProcessHistory("COMMENTS","keysort","J0","!\n");
    }
    return(0);

my guess is that maybe this botched in the main loop regex.  I'd just
remove it and do the filtering inside the ShowIntTrunk() func.

Subject: [rancid] h3clogin
Message-ID: <4D2C15C2.6080305@stony.com>

Hi all

I've seen some older posts when grepping though the history of this 
mailing-list about login timeouts when using the custom h3clogin, as 
described on http://sites.google.com/site/jrbinks/code/rancid/h3c

It seems I'm experiencing the same timeout problem like Ugo described in 
his mail to the list (Oct 22). Is there any solution to this? I'm trying 
to suck the configuration from HP A5500 Switches (altough in the CLI 
they're still called H3C S5500-52C-PWR-SI).

The Switches are running "Comware Software, Version 5.20, Release 2202P19"

Thanks,
Viktor

Ugo and I worked on it for a bit, then Christmas got in the way.  Lately 
someone else got in touch about the same issue, so I hope to take another 
look at it again shortly and try and get to the bottom of it.

What puzzles me is that I don't have this problem, and haven't been able 
to reproduce it to effectively test!  Which makes me worry that it is an 
expect bug or something obscure like that ...

Viktor, please send me privately the output from the following:

perl -v
expect -v

and I might be in touch with more questions.

Jethro.

Hi, 
I'm having trouble with HP pro curve 2910 stacked switch. I have several other HP switches and don't have a problem, however only this "commander" switch is giving me problems. I need to pass the stack member number, but I'm unable doing so. 
After I run "root at myrancid-host:/usr/var/logs# clogin 10.10.0.1", it gets stalled, and even manually I can't choose any of the members.  (see the log below)

Does anyone know how to correct the problem, so when I run "rancid-run" and having 10.10.0.1:hp:up in my router.db, to collect and save the configuration of the member "0" (commander)

Thank you in advance !

Hi guys

Got Rancid working for all Cisco etc devices but when trying to get the same working for Extreme I am seeing some strange things in the log file. It looks as if Rancid is not seeing the whole config past one page. And then fails on end of run not found, the below shows what I mean

.16.192.246: End of run not found
Press <SPACE> to continue or <Q> to quit

That line above is what you get when you ssh/telnet to the box and need to press space bar etc to continue seeing the config.

Anyone got any ideas at all?


Kind Regards

Chris

It's been a while since I configured RANCID for our Extreme but I
think I had to put the patch on Expect on before it worked.  The
Expect version was different than the patch came from so I had to
manually find where to change the code.  The patch is on the main page
for RANCID.

Hi

The attached works for me, not the full config but enough for us to recover if required.

We are running FOS      v6.2.2c

Usual disclaimer applies, use at your own risk etc etc etc

Hope it helps

Thanks

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

Chris Kilian

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.

Or when i run : #  env NOPIPE=y PATH=${PATH}:/usr/local/rancid/bin
rancid -d asa-1

executing clogin -t 90 -c"more system:running-config;show

Subject: [rancid] Rancid log - timeout reached
Message-ID: <4D35C773.8090501@pop-sp.rnp.br>

Hi, folks. I need some help to set up definitely my Rancid.

I have two Extreme devices and I set up as follows:

---------------
add user 10.0.0.1 user
add user 10.0.0.2 user

add password 10.0.0.1 {password_with_special_characters} ""
add password 10.0.0.2 {password_with_special_characters} ""

add method 10.0.0.1 telnet
add method 10.0.0.2 ssh

add cyphertype * {3des}
---------------

My log says to me:
10.0.0.1 clogin error: Error: TIMEOUT reached
10.0.0.2 clogin error: Error: TIMEOUT reached
---------------

I did the test, by hand:
/home/rancid/bin/clogin 10.0.0.1 - RESULT: log in OK
/home/rancid/bin/clogin 10.0.0.2 - RESULT: Error: TIMEOUT reached

Question:
An enable password is needed? Or quotes solve that? Because if the 
device is not a Cisco, there is no enable password, right?

Regards,

Hey there Chris,
I've been having some issues with this the past few days as well.  I tried
the expect version (and tcl) that rancid has posted to the ftp site, but ran
into more errors that without it.  I did have my 48si's running ExtremeWare
working just fine, but the expect hack broke the 48si's and did not resolve
the issue for the 8810s running XOS.
So I did some more digging and found this post from back in 2007.
http://www.shrubbery.net/pipermail/rancid-discuss/2007-May/002219.html

I used the patches for clogin and xrancid as described in the attachment.bin
listed on this post, and it worked well.  However, it will break any cisco
devices that use the clogin, so I actually made another copy of clogin and
called it xoslogin, then edited xrancid to use xoslogin rather than clogin.
All works fine now for both the xos and extremeware devices.

Hope this helps,
Patty

It's been a while since I configured RANCID for our Extreme but I think I
had to put the patch on Expect on before it worked.  The Expect version was
different than the patch came from so I had to manually find where to change
the code.  The patch is on the main page for RANCID.

Hi all, I can run clogin and get into the router but if I try to hit 
enter even the prompt never returns. Commands exhibit the same behavior.

It's rancid 2.3.2~a7-2, the packaged version for Ubuntu 8.04 LTS. Any ideas?

Hi


There is no way to backup config from other then stack commander from 
rancid what i know. If you don't lite to turn of stack function
there is some lines to add in hlogin for answer the switch number promp.

Subject: [rancid] problem with CSS order
Message-ID: <AANLkTik6aZ=yf8ROaWqQMXpzn5j0JFc213jei58c=Xpe@mail.gmail.com>

Hi!

I'm having a very interesting problem with my rancid installation. It works
really well for the other models but this one Cisco CSS11501 is giving me a
headache :)

Basically, the problem being is that it doesn't take much care in regards to
the order in which it presents the information within a VIP for example,
which means I will get a rancid mail every time looking much like this:

--
    content XXX_S_CMS
      vip address xx.xx.xx.xx
-     protocol tcp
      port 80
+     protocol tcp
      add service XXX-SI-CMS01
      active
-- 

same thing happens with the routes where they get presented in different
order every time..
I've really tried googling the issue but came up empty. Is this a known
problem and if so how do I solve it?
Is there a setting in the CSS to remedy this or is it possible to "sort" the
text before comitting to CVS?

Thanks for all suggestions

Martin

its occured a few times with specific IOS versions.  its an error in the
nv generator and is often corrected when reported to the Cisco TAC.  It
may already be corrected in a more recent version of the IOS for this
device.  please check on that.  the alternative is adding code to parse
configuration related to this "sub-config mode" and sort the contents.

Hi John,
 I have done this and I only find a single instance of Rancid installed. Here is a snippet from the log file when I run rancid-run. I really can't identify the reason why Rancid work on some devices and not others. I have check the router.db file and dns etc. The first device is IOS, second is NxOS.

Anymore help would be appreciated.

unrelated, but i think you need to fix these two errors first.  first, why
is the mail going to dead.letter?  are you not able to use sendmail (the
program, whether it be postfix, sendmail, or something else) from this
machine?  second, why is rancid trying to cvs add files that apparently
already exist.  this is usually because the configure script made an
error determining the proper argument for diff(1) on what i presume is a
linux box or there are two diffs on the machine with differing option
syntax and its finding another due to the PATH that configure constructed
for/in rancid.conf.  see routers.all for this group.  its should look
similar to
	is1-0204-colo3-edc:cisco
	s1-pscchw:cisco
		....

this means that either the rancid script (assuming cisco ios) or the network
client program (ssh, telnet, rsh) exited prematurely.  given its apprently
from send_user, i suspect its the script that exited, but i have not
inclination why that might be.  telnet/ssh is far more likely to exit
prematurely due to the network device closing the connection, etc.

you could try setting NOPIPE to YES in rancid.conf.  or try strace'ing cron
to figure out positively whats exiting and possibly why.

Subject: [rancid] Rancid with sendmail
Message-ID: <004b01cbb9b7$b41a0930$1c4e1b90$@antracnetworks.com>

Hi,

I'm having a small problem with sendmail and rancid.  I have one linux box
where I have this set up and all is working fine.  I'm trying to set up
another box for another location, and something is tripping up.  Sendmail
seems to be working fine - I can launch a sendmail command -
/usr/sbin/sendmail -t email.address at blah, and the message sends and receives
just fine.  I also see this coming through my /var/log/messages, and all the
information looks analogous to what is on the linux box that is working.

However, when I try to do the rancid-run, there is no email message, and
nothing shows up in /var/log/messages, so it's as if sendmail didn't even
get called.

My control_rancid file was modified to include the path, so instead of
sendmail -t, it's /usr/sbin/sendmail -t (I needed the full path on my first
implementation).

There is no error message in the log files for rancid to indicate that it
couldn't find sendmail or anything like that.

There is nothing to indicate that my /etc/aliases is incorrect.  When I run
newaliases, I see it do what it's supposed to do.

 

I know I should probably run postfix or something else, but I've already got
it working with sendmail on two other implementations, and not sure why this
3rd one won't work.  

 

I feel like it's something simple within rancid that I may have forgotten,
since sendmail doesn't even seem to get called - did a diff on
control_rancid with my other implementation - no difference.  /etc/aliases
is:

 

rancid-admin-networking:             rancid-networking

rancid-networking:                         my-email-address-here-for-testing

 

Thanks in advance,

Patty

One more thing of interest - changed it back to just sendmail -t in the
control_rancid file without the path, and I don't even get an error message
"sendmail not found" as I used to get in the logs.  So something is not
right with control_rancid - permissions and ownership seem to be correct on
this and all other files.

Subject: [rancid] Cisco WLC Script - Unknown Manufacturer Error
Message-ID: <AANLkTikzn5CJsc7vxpTe-3d2jyFics8TPQUDFcei_-So@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

I am trying to backup WiSM (4400 version 4.2.207.0) controller configs using
rancid scripts (wlogin, ciscowlc and ciscowlc5). I can successfully login to
controller using "wlogin wodc-wlc-03" and get config using "ciscowlc -d
wodc-wlc-03".

I have updated rancid-fe file with:

    'cisco-wlc'         => 'ciscowlc',
    'cisco-wlc5'        => 'ciscowlc5',

Added to router.db bile:

wodc-wlc-03:ciscowlc:up

But I am getting an unknown manufacturer error when I run this with
rancid-run script.

Trying to get all of the configs.
unknown router manufacturer for wodc-wlc-03: ciscowlc
=====================================
Getting missed routers: round 1.
unknown router manufacturer for wodc-wlc-03: ciscowlc
=====================================
Getting missed routers: round 2.
unknown router manufacturer for wodc-wlc-03: ciscowlc

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks
Asad

This is resolved. I needed to use cisco-wlc instead of ciscowlc as vendor
type.

Dear Friends,

I have a device which has cisco like command syntax and format.   I have
tried to copy cisco login/scripts and created it as new device type.

however i am getting problem in fetching configuration with it. Its showing
following messages in logs

=====================================
Getting missed routers: round 4.
testrouter: End of run not found
Error: TIMEOUT reached


On running in Debugg mode i get the below pasted output. Which shows that
there is issue with --MORE-- comming and requiring to press SPACE bar.

Another thing i noticed is that Cisco running-config Ends with the Keyword
"end" where as this device ends with exclimation mark with end like "!end"



Can someone tell me how can i fix it???

Subject: [rancid] rancid 2.3.4 sending empty emails "Routers changed to
	down:"
In-Reply-To: <C9632213.16B85%imd@acens.com>
Message-ID: <C96374E6.16C2F%imd@acens.com>


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

Ok it appears the problem I was having was partly the tacacs goup rights I had the user assigned to for the IOS devices. For the NXOS devices, I had to comment out commands that seemed to cause an exit on the 5Ks. Those were;
"show environmrnt clock"
"show cores vdc-all"

As for the dead.letter issue, I have reached out to the previous admin. When I use sendmail from the cmd line, while it still tells me it is going to dead.letter I get the message on my pc.

I would like to make sure I can utilize the mail system fully, so if youhave any suggestions I appreciate it.

FYI
I am NOT a linux admin nor do I claim to know what I am doing, but I have tinkered, can write basic scripts, and can read and understand config files so please be kind. :)

unrelated, but i think you need to fix these two errors first.  first, why
is the mail going to dead.letter?  are you not able to use sendmail (the
program, whether it be postfix, sendmail, or something else) from this
machine?  second, why is rancid trying to cvs add files that apparently
already exist.  this is usually because the configure script made an
error determining the proper argument for diff(1) on what i presume is a
linux box or there are two diffs on the machine with differing option
syntax and its finding another due to the PATH that configure constructed
for/in rancid.conf.  see routers.all for this group.  its should look
similar to
	is1-0204-colo3-edc:cisco
	s1-pscchw:cisco
		....

this means that either the rancid script (assuming cisco ios) or the network
client program (ssh, telnet, rsh) exited prematurely.  given its apprently
from send_user, i suspect its the script that exited, but i have not
inclination why that might be.  telnet/ssh is far more likely to exit
prematurely due to the network device closing the connection, etc.

you could try setting NOPIPE to YES in rancid.conf.  or try strace'ing cron
to figure out positively whats exiting and possibly why.

Hi,

 Thanks to john heasley this problem is SOLVED!!!!!

 The problem was that my system Debian the parameters "-u -4" was obsolete
and the diff command tells we must use "-U 4".


 Thanks!!!

I believe there has been some discussion on the Airheads forum w.r.t. this 
specific question - including script mods to make it work.  I haven't used 
the posted scripts yet, though, so I'm not 100% certain that it will work 
properly with AOS3.x, 5.x and/or 6.x commands.

Subject: [rancid] rancid with Fortigate FG100A
Message-ID: <20110130170234.GR13825@gmail.com>

Hi,

we're just starting to use Rancid and have started off with a Fortigate
FG100A firewall.  Regrettably, the existing scripts (nlogin, fnrancid)
don't quite work with it.

I've managed to patch those to get what seems to be a working setup (see
below).  The prompt is different, the get config command is slightly
different and you need to strip out the "System time" from the status or
else you get a patch every hour.

Would it be of interest to add support to the project?

Gavin

Subject: [rancid] Need some Help - F5's in RANCID
Message-ID: <4D471B89.5020800@siliconhotrod.com>

I need a second set of eyes to help me figure out what I'm missing or 
doing wrong.

I have a number of F5 LTM Load-Balancers that I'm trying to back up with 
RANCID.    The trouble I'm running into is that they were backing up 
fine for a short while, but have recently stopped backing up and 
continue showing the following in the logs:
=====================================
Getting missed routers: round 4.
xxxx.yyyy.com: missed cmd(s): ls --full-time --color=never 
/config/ssl/ssl.crt,ls --full-time --color=never /config/ssl/ssl.key
zzzz.yyyy.com: missed cmd(s): ls --full-time --color=never 
/config/ssl/ssl.crt,ls --full-time --color=never /config/ssl/ssl.key

I've been debugging and have verified the following:
- I have valid and functioning credentials in the .cloginrc file
- I have the devices listed in a 'load-balancer' group's router.db file 
with the keyword 'f5' and the flag 'up'
- I have tested the login via clogin  - works fine
    (I have run clogin with the '-c' command list that f5rancid 
issues...and everything works fine)
- I have run f5rancid in debug mode - works fine
    (when I run this I see that all the commands run and see a "HIT 
COMMAND" next to every command issued)

I am running version '2.3.2' (I have plans to upgrade to '2.3.6' soon)

Anyone run into this kind of behavior with F5's?

Any insights, hints, comments or criticisms welcome.
-Chris

Chris,

You're doing anything wrong.  You'll probably find that you can 'rancid-run -r <dev name>' and have it backup properly.  I would recommend getting a good backup of the keys once and then comment out the lines in the command table.

Wish I knew, they execute fine from command line (on F5) and even from a single rancid-run.  And as Chris mentioned, it worked for a while and then stopped.  A few other users I have spoken to about the problem have removed those lines and not bothered with it anymore.  

Chris,

How many devices are you backing up at a time?  Mine is set to PAR_COUNT=12; (rancid.conf)

Ideally I'd like to grab all my F5's (42) - but I've got them all 
disabled except for 2 for my debugging.

I'll comment out the key listing commands and see how she runs.

i'm not doing perl/unix lessosn, but you seem clueful enough to try this
on your own.  change NOPIPE to YES, then just before the rancid script
removes the .raw file, copy it somewhere for safe keeping.  this problem
is most likely related to cron, and the .raw file may have the clues needed
to fix this.

thats shouldnt matter.  they all run as separate instances.

Subject: [rancid] Help with pointing existing rancid from local svn repo to
	remote svn
Message-ID: <AANLkTi=y3bqOO1gY1VKwDGjfpQiR8=F9aT-DQ+zUQ_dm@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

   Anyone out there have a clue as to how I point my local rancid configs
away from my local svn repo and push them to a remote repo? It sounds simple
enough...

Thank you advance....
