Hi gents, I'm trying to increase my skills in router management but it aint easy! I tried to do a linux shell script that made a sh run in each of my routers, the exit of this script goes directly to a file so I could keep/change my configs in one "click"
but i obtain this result : Conecting 10.20.38.1 Trying 10.20.38.1... Connected to 10.20.38.1 (10.20.38.1). Escape character is '^]'.
I use EXPECT. You can ask question on it on "comp.*.tcl" NG. Sorry I don't remember * in the middle.
HTH

One possible solution would be to log into the router and copy the running or startup config to a tftp server instead of trying to parse a sh run. You could place them into a project or CSV directory and even name them using a variable.
copy running-config tftp:///directory/%hostname.config copy startup-config tftp:///directory%hostname.config
Etc
Personally I wouldn't re-invent the wheel (unless I could also patent it). I use RANCID religiously.
There are other tools that do the same thing. Cisco points users to the COSI-NMS project.
I should really start proof-reading my posts before I click send...
Thanks to you all I'll try RANCID , sounds fine !
I would do copy run tftp but I couldn't even log-on by telnet with the script
THANKS, once again.

As fas as I recall Windows telnet is broken and can not accept input from stdio.
As suggested to do your own scripting use Expect. It is rumoured that TerraTerm has good scripting tools.
In addition you can do a config download using snmp.
