color:#1F497D'>That would be a fantastic feature. However, it is not
possible to capture that specific information in most cases. In my
network, for example, I run rancid every 15 minutes to capture changes.
All it does is capture what changed. There is no specific mechanism to
see who made the changes. That capability varies by vendor, operating
system, and hardware platform. In other words, my Cisco 3845 can give me
that information, but only with certain IOS versions. My Cisco 2950
cannot give me that information at all. Juniper routers can roll back committed
configuration changes and have very detailed logging, but may not be able to
easily tell you who did it. A Cisco 6509 may or may not report who
made changes, depending on IOS version.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hi all,<br>
<br>
I installed Rancid in combination with FreeBSD CVSWeb on a Debian server.
Everything is working, great!<br>
<br>
There is only one thing I want to know: is it possible to show who made the
changes in telnet? At this moment the webpage is telling me that the unix user
(who runned Rancid) has made the changes. For example, I have more telnet
accounts. One for Paul and one for Peter. If Paul made one change, and Peter
made two changes, I want that the webpage is telling me exactly who made a
change. <br>
<br>
Any hints or keywords would be really appreciated. Thanks!<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Paul<o:p></o:p></p>
