Description Vincent passaro 2011-05-24 21:54:15 UTC
Description of problem:  Selecting check box for save VPN password in KeyRing fails.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

NetworkManager-0.8.999-2.git20110509.fc15.x86_64
NetworkManager-openvpn-0.8.999-1.fc15.x86_64
NetworkManager-glib-0.8.999-2.git20110509.fc15.x86_64
evolution-NetworkManager-3.0.1-1.fc15.x86_64
NetworkManager-pptp-0.8.999-1.fc15.x86_64
NetworkManager-openconnect-0.8.999-1.fc15.x86_64
NetworkManager-gnome-0.8.999-2.git20110509.fc15.x86_64
NetworkManager-vpnc-0.8.999-2.fc15.x86_64


How reproducible: Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure VPN connection in NetworkManager
2. Save configuration
3. Connect to VPN. MAKE SURE TO CHECK SAVE PASSWORD TO KEYRING
4. Disconnect from VPN
5. Reconnect to same VPN
6. NetworkManager still prompts for password as it's never saved in Keyring.
  
Actual results:

Passwords for VPN not saved in Keyring and automaticly given to NetworkManager during next connection.


Expected results: NetworkManager will save VPN passwords into keyring during first connection.  Second connection retrieves passwords from Keyring.

Also tried to save passwords in gnome-rdp, which failed.  So it appears that it's broke with a number of different applications.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 15:59:36 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
