Hi Ugo,

Earlier My config file  /etc/rancid/rancid.type.base looks like

##cisco;script;rancid -t cisco

##cisco;login;clogin

##cisco;module;ios

##cisco;inloop;ios::inloop

#cisco;command;ios::ShowVersion;show version

##cisco;command;ios::WriteTerm;show running-config

##cisco;command;ios::ShowVersion;show version;show running config

## -- end of config
