The more I read of this thread, the more I think it's a bad idea to
have a boot-instantiated daemon acquire a password by any means, and
the more I think maybe a completely different approach might be more
appropriate. So let me ask the original poster a few questions:

* What does this daemon do?
* How many users does the machine have?
        - At one time?
        - Ever?
* Would all the machine's users be expected to know the password?
* Did you write the daemon yourself?
* Why does it need to be a supervised daemon, rather than just a
  program the user runs? 

Thanks,
