I don't know if it makes any difference, but i have lots of 2810s
working fine.  The only difference i can spot between my .cloginrc and
yours is that i don't have an enable password specified.  My
understanding (limited as it is) is that if you have created a manager
account on the ProCurve, there is no need for that extra password.  If
you remove it, does it work?  Also, do you have the required {} around
the password?
