We prefer keys so at the very bottom of my .cloginrc I have:
# these are the broadest defaults at the bottom. These are used if
# nothing matches above.
#
# In theory, we use ssh key wherever we can and it just gets us in.
# ./bin/clogin will barf if you don't provide a value for the password
# field
add user* {rancid}
add password* {not-a-real-password}
add method * {ssh}
add autoenable * {1}
add identity* {/usr/local/rancid3/.ssh/id_rsa}
