I'd be grateful for insight into what tools/methods are being used out
there for managing and deploying large numbers of large customer and/or
internal management ACLs, specfically for Cisco devices.  Is vi/RCS/tftp
the most common toolset, or is anyone using the Cisco ACLM 

May be many people are also using a custom Perl script to perform tasks 
similar to ACLM?
 
In that case, a company which is member of Gitoyen will release RSN :-) under 
the free software licence GPL a tool very similar to ACLM but without the 
fancy and heavy user interface (just text files you edit with vi and store 
into CVS). Also, unlike ACLM, it works not only with IOS' ACLs but also with 
Ipfilter (FreeBSD), Netfilter (Linux >= 2.4), etc.

Stay tuned :-)
