[rancid] Re: Can't poll a cat5 switch. clogin works fine manually

Hi, What does your .cloginrc file look like? I'd hazard a guess that something is missing in there. The following config should work for your deviceadd user 10.10.10.7                     username add password 10.10.10.7             {password}add autoenable 10.10.10.7           1You can always run clogin 10.10.10.7 (without all the options) to see if your .cloginrc file is being used correctly.

Hi, Looks like that worked though as all you are doing with that command is logging in. Remember clogin is only the login mechanism.Try the following clogin 10.10.10.7 -c "show version" That should login, go into enable mode, do a show version, and exit.
