         ^^

okay, alogin is getting an unpriveliged login, so it is stalling.  it
expects to see >> Main# -- this is probably a bug, it should ideally
finish, but just fail for the /cfg/dump bit (an unpriv'd user can still
/info/sys, kinda like you cant "write term" on a cisco when you're not
enabled).  If John reckons this is not the correct behaviour, I'll fix it
:), but I cant dedicate much time over the next day or so..

for now, make sure your .cloginrc has only one password for this device,
the administrator password, e.g.

add password ad3-backbone {adminpassword}
