Allo all

I have an issue with rancid backing up fortigate devices.
Everything seems correct, but when checking if nlogin works, it auto
logs in, but I get this:

rancid@thunderaxe:/backups/Networking/bin> ./nlogin -t 90 -c"get system
status;get conf" 192.168.0.51
192.168.0.51
spawn ssh -c 3des -x -l mozz 192.168.0.51
mo...@192.168.0.51's password:
ONEFIRE # get system status

Error: TIMEOUT reached
rancid@thunderaxe:/backups/Networking/bin> get system status
If 'get' is not a typo you can use command-not-found to lookup the
package that contains it, like this:
cnf get
rancid@thunderaxe:/backups/Networking/bin>


Now I just don't understand!!

fortigate clogin script is "fnlogin", not "nlogin".
Please notice that the script isn't error proof and you have to do probably
some modifications. If you do them please provide feedback to the list.

Hi,
Is the prompt set to expect "#" in your nlogin script?

Line 458 in nlogin should be;
set prompt "\[#\\$] $"

That works for me.

Guys

I was under the belief that fnlogin was used for Fortigate, is this correct, also I cant find that line you talk about Andy can you provide any more detail

You are correct, the script I use is fnlogin which is from a patch (provided
by Diego Ercolani) which modifies the original nlogin;

The line is remarked;

# FortiOS 2.x prompts can end in either '#' or '$'
set prompt "\[#\\$]"

Hi,

I have some scrpt for fortigate with several patches applied and some fixed
but it really is not working correct.

The script connect correctly and get some config but not complete (i think
some paging <--more--> is ommiting some lines). Each time i run rancid-run
fortigate i got different config (without modification on the fortigate of course).

I have tried this script with this version of fortigate: Fortigate-1000AFA2
3.00,build0416,070821.

Someone has a good script that work with fortigates ?


I have attached my scripts (remember that do not work correctly for me)

Thank you.

Hi,
I had the same problem, you need to make sure console paging is disabled.
The script version I have attached is v1.1.1.1 and this will disable paging
and then enable it again when the script has finished.
I have added a couple of lines to enter the global configuration mode for
use with vdoms and this seems to work OK, but I am still testing.

I have attached the script I am using, I have tested it on FortiOS 3.0 and
4.0. You must use an admin user account on the Fortigate to change the pager
settings.
