[rancid] login problem on cisco switch

[N K Krishnan]

We ran into a similar problem recently with one (of over 200) 3850 stack.
Suggest you run each of the command that rancid runs after the clogin.

In our case, the "show version" command was taking too long and reported
that it could not figure out how long one of the switches in the stack was
up.  There were other log entries that pointed to a messed up control
plane.  A simple maintenance window switch reboot got "show version" to
work - rancid as well.
