You'll need to set it as environment variable in your shell before launching the name
server. The name server doesn't have a commandline argument to specify it. See
http://pythonhosted.org/Pyro4/config.html#configuring-pyro
So for instance in bash:

$ export PYRO_HMAC_KEY='shared_secret_key'
$ python -m Pyro4.naming
....
