Some external program scrubbed the password from the configuration
file. This looks a lot like what RANCID does to Juniper configs.

This exact configuration as-pasted would indeed throw an error, as the
place where a normal passwd-style hash would be is the string "/*
SECRET-DATA */".

Just replace that with a hash like you pasted below
("$1$sbvf432k$qYoeoRs9/t2kywPztwxl01") and it should work.
