Re: [Evolution] Enter password for the default keyring to unlock



This appears broken in SVN head also???.  It keeps asking me again
rather than getting it from the keyring.

It wont bother you as much.

You should only be prompted once when you first logon (when Evo data
Server cranks up) and once for the first time Evo starts up after
configuring the keyring (If you Always Allow, you wont see the 2nd
prompt again).  From then on Evo should look in the keyring for
authentication and you shouldn't be prompted for a Password once you
allow evolution access to the keyring.

Thanks,

The gnome-keyring is the password store for Evolution and just about
any other Gnome based application.  The password you are to put into
the boxes is for securing the keyring and making it easier for
applications to find passwords they need to make automated tasks
quicker.


If you don't want it, rebuild Evolution and use the configure option
--disable-gnome-keyring

Hi group,


Trying to use Evolution for E mail.
I keep getting a window that says,

"Enter password for the default keyring to unlock"

Two buttons....deny and ok and somewhere to put your password.

What is this and how do I get rid of it?


Also, it keeps asking me for my email password even though I've clicked
the box that says, "Remember password"

Any ideas?

Phil
