Yup. That's right.

The username and password aren't intended to come from the command line.
They are pulled from the configuration file by the Resin boot and passed
to the watchdog.

The command line authentication uses the admin password to verify the
Resin boot is allowed to start or stop an instance. You don't really
need to know the password or enter it on the command line. It's
essentially using the password hash as a shared key.

<resin:AdminAuthenticator xmlns="http://caucho.com/ns/resin";
                          xmlns:resin="urn:java:com.caucho.resin">
  <user name="admin" password="yCGkvrQHY7K8qtlHsgJ6zg=="/>
</resin:AdminAuthenticator>

Whenever you do a resin:import within an element, the top-level tag of
the imported file is the parent of the <resin:import>

Take care,
Emil
