Pix via ssh - how to reach required privilege level?

Hi,

I´m trying to backup some pix configs with rancid and chose ssh as the transport
mechanism.

There´s a problem with reaching the required privilege level as the firewall
expects the user to issue a "login" command before trying to do an "enable".

Is there a way to tell rancid that it is supposed to do a "login" *after*
logging in by ssh and *before* trying "enable"?

An alternative would be to configure the user on the pix in such a way, that
directly after ssh´ing to the device the user has the required access-privilege
and the prompt "#", but I honestly do not know how to do this (I´m not using
tacacs or radius by the way).

Any idea anyone?

Cheers,

Emre
