We have a password container that can collect passwords at runtime and keeps them. Currently we don't store passwords persistently (only in memory), though the implementation would be there. It uses a configuration backend and the passwords can be "sealed" with a master password.
Sounds like good news to me ... Can you tell me in which module is this implementation? Is this implementation enabled by default and not used or it's just there and nobody is using it? Are those passwords (sealed with a master password) encrypted? My first email was about WebDAV - it's an example from users RFEs. I have few extensions and they need similar functionality in OpenOffice.org - ability to store encrypted passwords persistently sealed with master password.
The whole implementation is encapsulated into a UNO service and if somebody wanted we could show him the ropes and discuss possible ways to integrate with other "backends".
Hmm, I think that the Mozilla approach is better. Lot of backends on all available platforms - never ending job. If persistently stored passwords can be encrypted, configuration backend fits all needs for this feature. -- Robert Vojta --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
