Hide Forgot
Description of problem: I have 2 openvpn connections configured. For both of them, when I select to enable I am prompted for the password and even though "Remember password for this session" and "Save password in keyring" are not checked, the password is still saved and accessible when viewing the Options for the connection. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.8.9997-5.git20110702.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Attempt to connect to an openvpn connection 2. Enter a valid password and allow the connection to successfully establish 3. Open up the "Network Settings", click on the openvpn connection then select "Options" Actual results: Password will be visible (or shown as dots and visible by clicking the "Show passwords" option) Expected results: Password should not be cached until explicitly requested by the user. Additional info: This same behavior was discovered and resolved in RHEL via bug 692578, so appears that fix never made it upstream.
The NM openvpn plugin was not respecting some password flags that indicate where to store the password. That's now been fixed upstream in git, and that fix will be deployed to Fedora soon.
NetworkManager-0.8.9997-6.git20110721.fc15 appears to resolve this issue. Closing out.
I believe you also need NetworkManager-openvpn-0.8.9997-2.git20110721.fc15, then it works for me with an "Always Ask" setting that wasn't there before.
I've just been a random bystander on this who is very happy to see if fixed. Updating to the version stated above fixes it. Propose you move it to Closed -> CurrentRelease.
