Re: [rancid] Run secondary login / collection script for entries in router.db? Anyone doing something like this?

Probably easier to do it the other way around - collect it all in one
big swoop. The extra stuff is all done as comments anyway. And
postprocess those collected files into a second directory/file/repo
for the just-config parts.
