[MPICH] mpich2: smpd phrase missing? - don't share config file across PMs

Thanks for your advice.  Looking into "mpiexec -help2", I've tried the 
options "-smpdfile a_copy_of_my_smpd_file" and "-noprompt" (separately) 
... without success.  I still get:

"Please specify an authentication passphrase for this smpd: Would you like 
to save this passphrase in '...'?

I guess I must be overlooking something...

Best regards
