[rancid] Cannot log into Cisco

[Edward Markiewicz]

Tyler,
I made the changes as you suggested, but unfortunately it did not work.  I still get the following errors;

!
<device name> clogin error: Error: TIMEOUT reached
<device name>: missed cmd(s): write term,show running-config,more system:running-config
<device name>: End of run not found
!

Judging from the > prompt, the new devices need to set enable mode first.
Remove the "noenable" line or set it to 0.

Tyler
