This bug is still there in the latest karmic (gvfs 1.3.3), but I found a workaround. If you give an explicit user in the URL (like sftp://u...@server) the password is saved (at least for me).
I've also added this to the bug report at the Gnome bugzilla. -- ssh passwords are not stored in gnome-keyring https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/365662 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
