Thank you for the fast reply.

Where should the command "rancid" be executed? 

I have logged in as the users "rancid" and "root" have ran the command "rancid 
-t hp -C DEVICENAME" in the folder ("/var/lib/rancid/bin/") that has the 
executable file "rancid", but it just produces "rancid: command not found".

I also typed the whole path to command "/var/lib/rancid/bin/rancid -t hp -C 
hostname" I just get the following output: "hlogin -t 90 -c '' DEVICENAME.

Am I doing it wrong?

BR,
Lauri

the root account typically receives a unix prompt, which the scripts do not 
expect.

rancid -t hp -C hostname

will give you the complete command that rancid will run; use that for testing.
Also, see the FAQ section 3 qestion 2.
