This is a popular ISP toolkit, based on expect and shell scripts, for managing router configurations. Rancid monitors a router's (or device's) configuration, including software and hardware (cards, serial numbers, etc), using CVS. Rancid currently supports Cisco routers, Juniper routers, Catalyst switches, Foundry switches, Redback NASs, and ADC EZT3 muxes. If nobody else steps forward, I might package this, but I currently have no use for it, so it would be better if it were packaged by someone who uses it regularly. -- - mdz
