When drakclub is run from the command line, it prints the machine root password 
in the console after it is entered in the gui with *.  Here is the output of my 
console.  (Don't worry, I changed the characters of the password.)
********************************************
$ drakclub
##

Password: hgj6873f

added medium club.comm_i586_9.2

I believe that the password should not be output to the console, this is a 
security breach.
