Anyone using RANCID successfully with PANOS 6.x?

[bobbarke]

We have been using RANCID (panrancid) to conduct nightly off box backups of Panorama and PA5020s in versions prior to 6.x.  After a successful deployment of PANOS 6.x RANCID backups fail consistently.  Is anyone using RANCID successfully in PANOS 6?

How did you get it to work?

Yes, we are running RANCID 3.1 with our PAs on PAN-OS from 6.0.4 through 6.0.6 without issue.

Doug Hughes made some changes to panlogin and panrancid and it looks like you have the old versions.

The new versions are here (about 1/2-way down the page):  Palo Alto | RANCID | Users
