Keyring with no password ask

It should run without using your fix, Dangermouse. F10 is prepared for it, meaning /etc/pam.d/gdm and /etc/pam.d/passwd already contain the fixes.

Thanks for the info , unfortunantely it still wont work if you use auto login, (well for me) so hopefully it will be ressolved by F10 release but im not holding my breath.

Hm, maybe there is another way, but it's kind of painful. I just reinstalled F10 from a Live CD after having tried out ArchLinux for four days. I didn't have any problem with this keyring at all, because the keyring thing wasn't installed.

What am I talking about??? I'm so sorry. It's four in the morning ... I mean F9, of course. F9 is prepared for it. I have to wake up.

EDIT: Actually a better place for the script is /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d
If placed there it will execute no matter which DE you use.

BAD move.
This would run for ALL users and would provide them each with the SAME keyring password, and to top it all off, everyone would know what that password is.

Try adding it to the bottom of ~/.bash_profile

Good to know. Though for me its not a problem given I run single user installs.

Or I could assign attributes to the file such that only root has rw rights. I suspect it would still run. I base this on the fact that the grub.conf/menu.lst file seemingly has the same attributes yet grub runs without issue. And as a consequence, one can't view grub.conf/menu.lst as a normal user.

Would the above work?

Thanks for the link. I checked all the files mentioned on that page, and it looks like everything on my system should be good to go. Still, I get prompted for the keyring password every time I log in. Anybody have any ideas? I am running F9 (which was clean-installed over F8, preserving the /home directory).

Still having no luck getting Pam to work. Copied and pasted from here:

http://fedorasolved.org/Members/thomasj/Gnome-keyring/

... (making sure to backup the original file) and restarted, but I still get prompted for a keyring at each login. My login password DOES match the keyring password.

Finally got it working. I've posted details here: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showth...hp?t=194239#14.

I have Fedora 11 and I followed the steps but didn't find system/preferences/personal/sessions, so I am stuck. Any clues?

[Dangermouse]

This is an old guide but instead of system/preferences/personal/sessions its system/preferences/startup applications
