[rancid] How .cloginrc works and can i have separate .cloginrc files for each group

[Adrian Dimitrov]

Hello I get the point and went through the manuals, one last thing, I cannot find where in the rancid.conf file I can set which .cloginrc to use. 

One last thing I guess custom rancid.conf should be copied from the original one and customized.

rancid 3.something, best to just go for 3.6.2, supports a per-group rancid.conf that can be used to overwrite rancid config, such as CLOGINRC (see clogin(1)).
