I'd take a guess in that it lets you send/append that 'password' with each log message, so that your log server can identify log messages from your real game servers (with that password set) and ignore malicious servers sending you fake log data.

There's nothing about sv_logsecret in the developer wiki at: http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/HL_Log_Standard And I can't find anything on Google except for this thread, which is pretty light on information: http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=154900 Also I can't find any mention of it in the mailing list archives apart from the patch release announcement. If anyone could explain exactly what it is and what it does, I would really appreciate it.
