        In the past I had a Perl script that would make SNMP calls from
a server authorized for SNMP read/write access to handle the download 
much like you used your expect script...

Ulf Zimmermann was said to been seen saying:

A while back when I was at SGI, I wrote my own scripts, using expect
and tftp to backup configurations of Cisco routers. Configs then were
put into rcs. Now before I am resurecting those scripts again for my
current job, what are people using to backup equipment, things such
as Cisco routers (26xx, 36xx, 72xx, 75xx, MSFC, RSM) and Cisco Catalyst
switches (2924XL, 3548XL, 4000, 5000, 6500) ?

What I am trying to archive is at least a daily backup, with again
some version control to be able what changed between days.
