not now, i'll go on site tomorrow to edit the configuration with a console cable:Ss

Can you post up the current configuration? We can help look through it for any suggested changes.

Hi,

Please find the part of the configuration related to this case:

username "admin" password ac09c5045f45c8fd3c125f0b3b742e4b privilege 15 encrypted
username "rancidPoll" password 1b430c6g7deb13487f016d09e7c66fce privilege 15 encrypted
ip ssh server

snmp-server engineid local 800002a203d067e5994fd4
snmp-server community "Monitoring" rw
enable password ac09c5045b345tkf25cTu3b742e4b encrypted

FYI, the firmware version is : 5.0.0.4

Many thanks for your help

It appears that the enable password line is still present. When you run the no enable command does the switch return any error messages? Or anything recorded in the logs?

As a side not, that firmware is very old, you may want to consider updating it.

Yes, still present because i re-add it in the config file to allow remote ssh enable session.

if i configure no enable password. when i use SSH to remotely connect to the switch, the message is : authentication failed after typing en...

I hope that a firmware update will solve the trick...

As this trick os only to allow rancid backuping the configuration, do you have any rancid clogin script working good with Dell PConnect switches ?

Sorry, I do not have any experience with rancid clogin scripts.

ok, but no enable password should be working after a firmware upgrade ?

Updating the firmware is the next suggested troubleshooting step.
