I have a similar situation. I'm not quite familiar enough with linux to know if my experience will help you. Anyway ... I boot my laptop home computer (1 user) into runlevel 5 with *auto-login*. It has wifi built-in, and I wanted to set it up to auto-connect, _and_ not have to enter the keyring password. I tried making the keyring's password the same as the user's - didn't work. To test the process, I turned off auto-login - it worked! My semi-newbie skills led me to the conclusion that, if gnome does not have to ask for the password (auto-login mode), then the keyring manager never sees it (and asks for it anyway). Conversely, if gnome has to ask for the password (standard log-in mode), the keyring manager sees it, and the keyring is unlocked. To help me learn a bit more, inform me how much this applies to your situation. You're working on a server; do you use auto-login for your own account? _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
