This means your system is sending a session password, but the remote session
has no password set for incoming connections and returns M_OK 'non-secure',
which gets logged as "Warning: remote set UNSECURE session".
(a wrong password should return an error)

It is not a password protected or encrypted session, even if binkd tells you
so. It is a security flaw of binkd though.
