thiell/test — Issue #177: clush ssh username specification failure

Clush can't establish SSH connection to remote node is -l option is supplied. It seems that the ssh subprocess dies with a permission denied error, even for valid usernames.

Nevertheless, the debug mode shows that the command is correct and can be run successfully.
