1. the warning which it displays is wrong: I do NOT put passwords on

2. it is the first time I see mention of setproctitle in samba context.
If such dependency is needed, I'd say it should be documented somewhere, no?

Thanks,

But you had to enter a password, the warning message isn't the best but
it wasn't far out.
