Description Tim Speetjens 2014-11-14 15:26:43 UTC
Users expect the browser to propose to cache credentials, however, this functionality does not work when logging into the RHEV User Portal.

1. This is actually a security issue - but I assume if customers do not want this, they can turn off it on the browser side - so I assume we do not need on our side the ability to turn on or off this.
2. It seems to be working (on 4.0) already for the admin portal - so is it just fixing the user portal?

I agree, but during SSO refactoring we changed login screen, so it conforms to current practise. So browser will ask a user to store the password or even fill-in stored password depending on user's browser configuration.

It was not possible to store password for both in 3.x, but in 4.0 storing password is available for both.

Comment 7 Ravi Nori 2016-06-07 14:46:38 UTC
This is fixed as part of SSO work in 4.0, the browser setting for saving user name and password will be used for the login screen.

Comment 8 Martin Perina 2016-06-13 14:09:22 UTC
Merged long time ago and definitely part of 4.0.0.4 build

Comment 9 Pavel Novotny 2016-07-15 16:46:42 UTC
Verified in rhevm-4.0.2-0.2.rc1.el7ev.noarch.

Browsers now offer the user to save credentials for the SSO login page.
For details see bug 1164302 comment 9.
