(In reply to comment #5 from Vincent Untz) This is not correct. What happens if you change your password at login time, because you are required by policies to do so? Than pam_gnome_keyring will not see it.
pam_gnome_keyring.so clearly needs to be added to /etc/pam.d/common-password, so that it will be called every time a password is changed.
Okay, sounds sensible, indeed. (this of course means my patch for pam-config is wrong ;-)) (In reply to comment #9 from Thorsten Kukuk)
Hm, why only this limited number of applications? Why shouldn't we support xdm, kdm, login, ...?
I don't know enough about gnome-keyring, but I think this is something for /etc/pam.d/common-* files, so that every application you login with will set the keyring. The description on that gnome webpage is very GNOME centric and assumes nobody will use ever other tools, this doesn't look correct to me.
The thing is that someone logging in KDE probably doesn't want gnome-keyring to be spawned. (On the other hand, this argument is a bit flawed since you can log in KDE with gdm, and the user would just have to uninstall gnome-keyring-pam). A better example would be the console: I'm not sure gnome-keyring can really be useful there, at least for now. But I guess it makes sense in most cases, so I'll trust you here again. (I guess the wiki page was written with a "here's the minimum you want to do if you want a good integration for GNOME" mind) Thanks for the feedback! -- 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.
