I found the answer to the rancid - extreme problem I had. I will post
the answer here for anyone else who might experience the same problem.

Below are the working configs (x.x.x.x is the switch's IP address):

extreme description in /usr/local/rancid/.cloginrc

# Extreme Switch
add user x.x.x.x            admin
add password x.x.x.x        {admin-passwd-here}
add noenable x.x.x.x        0
add autoenable x.x.x.x      1

and in /usr/local/rancid/switches/router.db

x.x.x.x:extreme:up

Regards,

Joseph Mpora
