We already use ssh public key authentication on most of our switching gear; so the RANCiD user (rancid) already has keys set up. We added an account for rancid on gitlab and added its public key for authentication.
- set up a repository on gitlab writable by your RANCiD user- add the gitlab repository URL as a second remote so your remotes look something like:
# git remote -v gitlab g...@gitlab.foobar.com:cns/RANCiD.git (fetch) gitlab g...@gitlab.foobar.com:cns/RANCiD.git (push) origin /usr/local/rancid3/var/gitroot/cns (fetch) origin /usr/local/rancid3/var/gitroot/cns (push)- add a post-commit hook to the repository on RANCiD such that it pushes to gitlab:
# cat .git/hooks/post-commit #!/bin/sh # this just pushes a copy of this repo to gitlab everytime there's a commit /usr/bin/git push gitlab It's a little elaborate, but we had Gitlab already. I also want to add another git push to our Observium server. On 10/9/18 2:22 PM, Gauthier, Chris wrote:

(About 5 years ago this is the setup I used, so it's what I'm sort of familiar with.) I have rancid working, but I need a better front-end. WebSVN is a little clunky (perhaps it's the way I've built it?) and doesn't have a simple way to just download a file. It does a good job of displaying configs and comparing two versions. But it I want to copy the file locally, I'm copy and pasting... It also appears to be a dropped project, so it doesn't look like I should ever expect improvements.Anything better out there? I can switch over to git if there's a better interface in that direction. The front-end needs to be web-based so that I can just point people to a URL. It should have a means to compare various revisions... and of course a means to pull the files down to your local system. It doesn't need to support any sort of push from client to repository since that's something that I only want rancid doing...Thought? What are you all using?
