Why do we need a separate secret.txt file for the password?

Wait, is 'reallysafepw' a secure password? Seems weak.

I think I need to use the `ansible-vault encrypt` command for the secret.txt file, but I’m not entirely sure how to link it back to lock.yml.

I believe the command to create the secret.txt file is just echoing the password into it, but I’m a bit confused about how to reference the vault password in that file.

I practiced a similar question where I had to create a vault file, but I can't recall if I need to specify the variables in YAML format after creating the vault.

I think I remember that to create the vault file, I need to use the ansible-vault command, but I'm not sure about the exact syntax for defining the variables inside lock.yml.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused about the different host groups and password variables. I'll need to read through the question carefully to make sure I understand all the requirements before I start coding.
