Mailing List Archive: clogin with CatOS + autoenable

Hi,

Been using rancid with CatOS that required login password and then
manually enable with enable password, it was working fine.
We changed the CatOS switch (5500) to use aaa server which enters user
directly to enable mode and the clogin seems to be unable to deal with
that:

$clogin cat55
spawn telnet cat55

Cisco Systems Console

Username: rancid

Password:
cat55-u-b> (enable)
Error: TIMEOUT reached
$

the login succeeds but seems the clogin will not recognize the enable
prompt and expecting the # sign.

the .cloginrc config is:

add user cat55 rancid
add password cat55 {rancidpassword}
add autoenable cat55 1

before I go hacking the clogin, is this really not supported or am I
missing something ?

Thanks
Yuval

this (clogin + autoenable + catos) does not work properly, ATM. I have
a patch for the next release, but nothing to test it on. please contact
me directly if you're willing to debug with me or provide access to one
remotely.
