> 1/ Why is there the delay?

I think the delay you observe is caused by aesCBCencrypt or
aesCBCdecrypt trying to find some entropy from /dev/random.

Try to move the mouse or do something else when secstored
is encrypting or decrypting the secstore.
It should speed up the process.

> 2/ What does the 'secstore from ?!?' message want to convey?

"?!?" should be the IP address of the secstore client,
but since there is no /net/tcp/*/remote file on Unix,
it cannot display it.

This is needed for RADIUS authentication.
It's probably useless in your case.
