I guess it depends on what information is important to you.  That is, if
you just need a most recent copy of the configuration files then you
could use tftp, ftp or scp to move the file off the router to the
server.  If you want to have a set of diffs indicating what changes were
made when, plus have the ability to select from multiple revisions
should you have to revert, then Rancid is definitely the way to go.
