[Bug 540546] New: kde4 networkmanager plasmoid does not save password if kwallet is disabled
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=540546 Summary: kde4 networkmanager plasmoid does not save password if kwallet is disabled Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Milestone 7 Platform: i386 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Workspace AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: s.assmann@gmx.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090730 SUSE/3.5.2-3.4 Firefox/3.5.2 Hi Will, I really don't like kwallet so I did the following on a clean installation to reproduce the issue: added a new wireless connection with encryption, kwallet will popup and ask me to create an account, so I clicked basic setup and finish to not create an account. Afterwards kwallet is quiet and plasmoid will ask me to reenter the password again. After doing that the connection will just not work without any further notice(which I think should at least be communicated to the user). After checking the log it says no credentials provided. I checked the plasmoid settings and default is to store it unencrypted. Changing it to encrypted file didn't work either. Still the log complains about missing password. The only thing that works is to select "prompt for password". Could you please check on this? :) Reproducible: Always -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

From now on you will be connected to your wireless networks automatically when your wifi card is active and you are in range of one of your networks.
Apologies if you were after an encrypted solution. You can try setting up kwallet without a password and permanently allowing access to/from it (I can't remember the exact phrase used). However, if you were just after a set-and-forget solution and you don't mind that your network credentials are stored as plain text in a file, this method should work for you. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
