I want to override the existing site password for my system that is 
listed on the 4th line of the fppath.  The saved process table should no 
site password assigned.

If I change the $PATHFILE value to point to an fppath file with no 4th 
line or a blank 4th line (fppath.xxx), I still get a site password 
assigned.  It seems to come from the file called fppath not the one I 
assigned to $PATHFILE.

Using FPSP I am unable to override the entry in fppath and indicate it 
should not assign a site password.
