Thanks Adam, that seemed to get me past that step. I think it messed up the perms on something else though. I've got everything else pretty much done and I'm at this point now: trying to run
/var/lib/rancid/bin/mtlogin myrouter
throws this error: Error: /home/myloggedinuser/.cloginrc must not be world readable/writable
Its like rancid is looking for .cloginrc at the home folder of the user that installed it and not in /var/lib/rancid. Note this command works perfectly and logs into the router successfully.
/usr/lib/rancid/bin/clogin -f /var/lib/rancid/.cloginrc myrouter
The generate script works great, but we're also unable to execute this command to write the php results to the router.db file:
php /opt/observium/scripts/generate-rancid.php > /var/lib/rancid/observium/router.db
It just throws: -bash: /var/lib/rancid/observium/router.db: Permission denied And you can't read it with sudo although it is set to root owner and group with 750.
Any insight is greatly appreciated, thank you for all of your help.

Run that as root, and it won't ask a password.

Been hacking around with rancid for a bit and stuck on this step:
Run this command to create the folder structure:
su - rancid /var/lib/rancid/bin/rancid-cvs
It is asking for a password, presumably for rancid, which we don't have. Again presuming here, that it was created by the installer. Trying hard to follow the instructions (exactly) and this is where I'm getting hung up. Thanks ahead of time for the help.
