Greetings, I'm setting up a project and would like your input?. We currently have several systems from different vendors running Freebsd. Because the systems are from different vendors, running differant versions of the OS, etc, I've decided to archive a subset of files. For instance the modified kernel config. Every couple hours from the config server I want to start a shell, telnet to the box, login , ftp the config back to the server, then log off. Then use either cvsup or SCCS to arcive the config. In the event we change something that negatively effects us we could look SCCS/CVS and find out when the last change was made, what was the config on this date, what is the difference from the new config and a config from two days ago. Would you recommend SCCS, cvs or something else for doing this? Are there any guidelines or tutorials for interacte shell scripts...IE Passing a user name and password via telnet, ftp etc. ??? No, I can't use rsh/ssh/scp/rcp because I want the same scripting to work for routers and switches that can only do ftp or tftp. Any help, pointers or other info would be welcomed.
