nm-applet uses gnome-keyring, which needs a bit of setup when used in non-GNOME environments. If gnome-keyring isn't built with D-Bus support, then you need to start "gnome-keyring-daemon --daemonize --login" when your desktop session starts. This will print out an environment variable that needs to be inserted into the environment of any other program that starts in the session, which looks like this: GNOME_KEYRING_CONTROL=/tmp/keyring-hSwpKJ this lets programs like nm-applet know where to look for the keyring daemon, which is what actually stores your passwords securely. If you google around there used to be instructions on how to get KDE to handle running gnome-keyring-daemon manually, I'd assume that whatever session manager is starting up your desktop probably has the same functionality.
