Hello all,
Thank you for the help so far. I have been trying to get my .clogin file looking correctly and I am starting to confuse myself. When using a * in place of the device field, if I add another line trying to get RANCID to handle a particular device, will the 2nd line override the previous line? For example, here is my .cloginrc thus far...

add method * {telnet} {ssh}
#ffi
add autoenable fi* {1}
#capgemini
add autoenable 153.207* {1}
add autoenable ckc* {1}
#cge
add autoenable 206.245.31.* {1}
#cpk
add autoenable 10.33* {1}
add autoenable 212.26* {1}
add autoenable rtr* {1}
#wwp
add autoenable wp* {1}
#ypa
add autoenable pa* {1}

add autoenable * {0}
add enauser * {user}
add user * {user}
add password * {pass} {pass}
add cyphertype pixhq* {des}
add cyphertype fw* {3des}
add cyphertype 206.245.31.* {des}

add user *-inter-ds3 {user}
add password *ds3 {pass} {pass}

add user 206.245.21.* {user}
add password 206.245.21.* {pass}

add user lb* {user}
add password lb* {pass}

add user *showcase {user}
add password *showcase {pass}

add user 206.245.31.* {user}
add password 206.245.31.* {pass2}



So, my last line, 206.245.31.* {pass2}, does this work in conjunction with the line add password * {pass}? So everything that is NOT 206.245.31.* will get pass and everything with 206.245.31.* will get pass2? Is there anything else that I should be aware of when defining these devices? Like should I add all of my specific devices first and then add the wild card? Or what about the pattern matching piece of the puzzle. If I specify cg* and then have 2 devices say, cgk01 and 01cg will it find both of those, or just the cgk01?

Thanks in advance.
