Hello Roland,

Please revert this change such that the Debian srptools package is again in
sync with the upstream srptools package and such that SRP users are saved a
few hours of frustration by trying to figure out why SRP login doesn't work
if they would install a version of srptools in which /etc/srp_daemon.conf
disables login by default.

In case you would not be aware of this: I am the maintainer of the upstream
srptools package.
