Rancid configs for PAN can NOT be used to restore the config, unless you cut 
and paste the configuration.  This is because the native config files are 
stored in XML format and that is the format the Palo Alto utilities expect when 
performing restorations.

I do not know much of anything about PAN devices.  However, be aware that,
depending upon your rancid configuration, passwords may be removed.  Also,
see the FAQ S1 Q5 for another caveat that may apply to PAN.

Also, include the error you received when attempting to load the config.
It might provide clue to someone with more experience with PAN.
