Installing Rancid On Centos
I actually installed Rancid on my newest CactiEZ install. Rancid is a device configuration backup service. To view the CVS files that are created I used CVSweb.
I started with this tutorial to install Rancid on Centos…an extremely useful tutorial.
Once this was working I pulled the newest files from the CVSweb site. I dropped them into “/var/www/cgi-bin/” folder.
A quick tip: each time you edit the cvsweb config file be sure to restart your apache service( service httpd restart).
Another note: the rlog binary isn’t installed at this point. The quickest method is to install rcs with a simple “yum install rcs”.
Have fun my friends 🙂
You can back up Mikrotik config with it. I’m sure it’s possible to do ubnt as well, somehow.
Yarrrrrr. I think Andrew put up something about backing up MTKs.
What Cacti-EZ version did you start with? Trying to run the step that installs the EPEL I get an error saying it needs two other libraries. And thus exhausts my linux knowledge. I’ll keep digging.

I’m using whatever is newest. What’s the command that is tanking? Perhaps I can help.
