[opensuse] Enter password to unlock your keyring?
Hello: I tried to set up VPN in networkmanager. When I tried to save the configuration a window titled "Unlock login keyring" appeared saying: "Enter password to unlock your login keyring. The login keyring did not get unlocked when you logged into your computer." I uploaded a screenshot of that widow here: http://i64.tinypic.com/der886.jpg (susepaste.org did not load) This window completely disabled writing text in any other window (terminal, document editor). I have no idea what login keyring is and what password the window expects. I worked with vpn clients (cisco vpnclient and shrew ike) previously but they run their system service daemons and I did not have to enter any extra passwords to make them work (only my vpn password). Can someone please enlighten my what this is all about, what login keyring is, what password that window asks for and how to avoid constant requests for extra passwords? A link to some good manual or documentation would be also helpful.

It is a system that stores keys for other services (like WiFi password). I think for KDE. It is not related to the VPN. It may be the same password as your user login. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)

The keyring is the gnome-keyring. Apparently some package was pulled in the requires / recommends it. Try uninstalling and locking it.

Thanks, The keyring is indeed gnome keyring (gnome-keyring package) and it runs as a daemon when user logs in: ~> ps -ef|grep -i keyring ..... 4573 1 0 11:47 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --foreground --components=secrets I tried to delete gnome-keyring package but it has a lot of dependency requirements: gnome-keyring-pam-3.20.0-7.1.x86_64 requires gnome-keyring = 3.20.0, but this requirement cannot be provided uninstallable providers: gnome-keyring-3.20.0-5.4.x86_64[repo-oss] [ ] Following actions will be done: deinstallation of gnome-keyring-pam-3.20.0-7.1.x86_64 deinstallation of gnome-keyring-lang-3.20.0-7.1.noarch deinstallation of NetworkManager-vpnc-gnome-1.0.8-7.3.1.x86_64 deinstallation of NetworkManager-gnome-1.0.10-13.2.x86_64 deinstallation of gnome-keyring-pam-32bit-3.20.0-7.1.x86_64 deinstallation of NetworkManager-openswan-gnome-1.0.6-4.2.x86_64 deinstallation of NetworkManager-openconnect-gnome-1.0.2-6.1.x86_64 deinstallation of NetworkManager-gnome-lang-1.0.10-13.2.noarch [x] break gnome-keyring-pam-3.20.0-7.1.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies [ ] keep gnome-keyring-3.20.0-7.1.x86_64 I want to delete all gnome-keyring packages but want to keep NetworkManager packages. I selected "break dependencies" and will see what occurs. I don't understand why gnome-keyring is a requirement for NetworkManager-openconnect-gnome and NetworkManager-vpnc-gnome when I do not want to save my passwords. It should not be a requirement.

I tried to delete gnome-keyring package but it has a lot of dependency requirements:
What desktop are you using? If you are using Gnome or XFCE, do not try to uninistall that package.

Did you simply try to enter your login password?

It is a feature of Network manager to save the WiFi password. If you do not want to save it, you have to search for some configuration option to not save it, if it exists (I'm unsure). -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
