[rancid] Hop onto router/gateway to login to another router

[Muhammad Shoaib]

I tried the following configuration but seeing an error :

--- .cloginrc
add method far-router {usercmd}
add user far-router admin
add password far-router {password} {password}
add usercmd far-router {clogin} {-noenable} {gateway-router}
add usercmd_chat far-router {>} {telnet far-router\r} {User Access Verification} {}

---- output
[rancid at ca01net03 ~]$ clogin far-router
far-router

Error: unknown connection method: usercmd
[rancid at ca01net03 ~]$

Do I need to install/patch rancid to get "usercmd" to work ?

Please advise.

Hello,

I ran into a scenario where I need to jump through a router or routers to get the config of the target router.

I have searched archives and found the following thread (Sept 2008 ) and wondering if this is still intact or better ways has been incorporated into the newer versions of 'rancid'.

I am running the rancid 2.3.8

Any hints / links would be appreciated

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Muhammad
