I'm pretty sure that's the case (but you can look up the spec.txt
file for safety), well, it should be otherwise I don't think you
would have had that log line. But the server_set_id line is not
essential, as far as I know. In the spec.txt you will also find a
sample lookup of the password in a plain file.

(I hope it is alright that I also send my replies directly to you)
