can be told to encrypt traffic by supplying a `-password` option or
`WEAVE_PASSWORD` environment variable when launching weave, e.g.
host1# weave launch -password wEaVe
or
host1# weave launch -passwordfile /path/to/file
host1# export WEAVE_PASSWORD=wEaVe
host1# weave launch
where the file must contain a single line like this:
