We received it.

There was a bug in one of the Debian packages with the example
chatscript. The error was that there was a line like the following:
assword: \qPaSsWoRd\q
Since \q is a toggle, the second \q toggles the do-no-display flag
and the password is faithfully echoed to the syslog.
Please check if you did not make the same error in your script.
We cannot check anything without some more information.
Wichert.
