Ubuntu :: Reinput Keyring Password To Wireless Controller?
Dec 19, 2010
When I used the LiveCD, it made me give it a password for the keyring, I made it lol, because it's a livecd session. After I installed, the wireless controller asked for the password again. I then changed it. When I installed Ubuntu previously, it didn't ask me for any of that, it just defaulted the keyring password to my user password or something like that and asked me if the wireless controller should have access ONCE. Now every time I boot I need to type the keyring password in again.

New to forum and quite new to any linux distro, have played around a little with older Ubuntus, having spare desktop I thought it was time to see how things are developing with the latest release. 10.10, downloaded and cd made.
Installed without a hitch, picked up all the hardware even my Edimax 712g nic. entered wireless network details and was off. Enjoying the new look and feel of the OS surfing, mailing and connecting to my win 7 laptop for my music shares. We then had visitors round so shut down, and went back to it this morning, only to find that a couple of things had changed.
(1) no matter what I do (Followed several different suggestions found on here) and no matter how many times I check all the details, It will not connect, to the router just carries on seemingly without end trying; only broken by the requests for the security key of the router.
(2) the keyring password is not recognised.
I thought I may have done something I didn't realise, so I simply did a reinstall, everything exactly the same, and just replicate the problem I perfromed a restart; ending up with exactly the same result.

The only problem I am experiencing is that when I boot Ubuntu quickly finds my wireless network but does not automatically connect to it. A window then comes up asking me to "enter password for Keyring default". After having then entered this password the connection does take place and remain stable. So really no big deal but why do I need to do this every time I boot up. This is new to me. Never had anything like this on previous versions.

Well, first off I'd like to say that I am much happier with the wireless on Ubuntu 10.04 than I was on 8.10 (the last time I tried Ubuntu). However, there is a small annoyance I'd like to fix: every time I log in, I get a prompt saying that an application (the wireless network manager) is requesting the password for such-and-such keyring. I have to enter the password before I can connect to my network. Is there a way to get around this somehow so that I don't have to enter the keyring password for this keyring (the "default" keyring) every time I log in?

I just did a fresh install of 10.10 and whenever I log on it request the password for default keyring (the same as sign in password) in previous versions of ubuntu it never asked and automatically started the wireless; now it asks and tells me the password is incorrect. I can hit cancel a numerous amount of times and it will eventually allow me to connect, but that doesn't seem like a good fix in my opinion. This also happened when I tried out lubuntu 10.04 which I promptly removed due to the menu style.

Until this morning, my Wireless had always been working fine. This morning I rebooted after an Ubuntu update and now:
- I am asked twice for "enter password for keyring 'default' to unlock" whereas before I was always just asked once.
- The connection seems to be established, with the icon showing good reception and the tooltip reads "Wireless network connection 'mywifi' active: mywifi (100%)
BUT I can not connect to any website or ping the machines of my network, even by IP address. All of the other computers around (Mac, Windows) can use the Wireless as usual. My Wireless is WPA-PSK TKIP hidden SSID. My Ubuntu is 10.10 Maverick.

I've tried Ubuntu, Arch, and most recently Fedora but the SUSE GNOME environment blows everything else away!
The only problem (so far) is that Network Manager requires you to enter your password every time you login to unlock the password keyring. I want to disable this.
I think some distros disable the prompt by using the login password to unlock the keyring, but I use auto-login (if that makes a difference).

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04LTS. I'm trying to configure my chat accounts. But after entering username and password, it is asking "Enter password to unlock your login keyring". I have entered my login password. But it is saying that "The password you use to log in to your computer no longer matches that of your login keyring."

Numerous packagesare asking for my default keyring password. The only password I have ever created on this newly installed netbook remix 9.1 is my user password. That is not accepted by the default keyring. I have tried to change the default keyring password using my administrator user name password.What is the default keyring password? How can I change it, or use it if I have never known it or created it?

On the live cd I put a dumb temporary password into keyring (not user password) not knowing it would keep the same password on finished install. How do I change this in Xubuntu 10.04?

I recently changed my password, restarted my comp several times since then, and then today (roughly 23:30 est) i received an error message stating that my keyring password had changed since i last needed to use it. i dont know why it changed only the login pass and not the 'keyring' pass too. i cannot figure out how to actually change the keyring pass..this poses no actual problem, merely an inconvenience.

Every time after reboot it asks for the password. I need it to just lower this security and do this by itself.
Also, in general, how can I prevent Ubuntu from asking the password from the interactive user at all?

Every time I log in, I get the "password for keyring default" question two or three times, unless I enter it immediately as it pops up, sometimes even that doesn't prevent it from respawning. What could be causing this? I'm using Maverick.
P.S. Hmm, I don't think I'll be watching the lunar eclipse much now, the sky is covered with smoke, maybe it's lunar apocalypse.

I have installed Ubuntu three times now, and I'm running into same problem all the time, both with Karmic Koala (9.10) and now also Lucid Lynx (10.04):
When I configure Evolution for IMAP access to my GMAIL account, it never prompts me for a password. Instead, I guess Evolution tries to connect without any password and fails every time. Switching to Thunderbird didn't do the trick either, so I think it might have something to do with the Keyring daemon. My Internet connection is fine, as I can access my account under other operating systems.
Things I've tried so far:
"Forget passwords" in the evolution menu
Forcing shutdown of evolution and deleting the ~/.evolution folder (as suggested by https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=221112)
Accessing the keyring and deleting the default keyring
[code]....

I have to always log into my keyring. Unlock Login Keyring comes up when bring up the computer. The unlock login Keyring does not get unlocked when I log in. How can I get the login process to fully log on when I am not around? When I run vista (windows) I never have to login to a keyring to give a password to get passed the Internet process. I have to always do this with Ubuntu 10.04.

I switched to Kubuntu with the upgrade to Lucid. After a couple updates, I started getting a "Gnome looking" unlock screen on my desktop at start-up. I get the regular KDE keyring password request and a second that looks like the Gnome keyring. I don't know how this happened. I checked in Synaptic and found the gnome-keyring was installed. Can I uninstall this or will that cause problems?

I just reinstalled ubuntu lucid after accidentally damaging it, And I used all the same passwords and user names as before, I can login fine, and I can do sudo commands, but the gnome keyring wont accept my password, I tried changing my password using Applications>accessories>Passwords and encryption but that didn't work. How can I fix this so that keyring will accept my password, I need it to save my wireless router password.

I changed my ubuntu account password recently because my brother was fooling around in it, and now I have to enter my keyring password every time log in because my ubuntu account password is different from my keyring password. I have looked just about everywhere, but I can't find a way to change my keyring password. Does anyone know how?

After grub, a prompt asks for password for default keyring to unlock, mentioning something about the ubuntuone-client-applet wanting access. Having entered the password a blank black screen appears with only the "working" mouse cursor on-screen. This remains indefinitely.

I just re-sized my windows partition on my laptop and installed 10.04.1. Brand new clean install. I set up my user account, gave it a password, and everything was fine until I tried to connect to my wireless. I typed in the security key for my wireless, and it asked for a password to unlock the default keyring. The problem is, I never set a password for the "default" keyring. I never changed my user password. I didn't auto-login, I entered my password. This was the first boot up of the machine after installing 10.04.1. I can't use Empathy, because the keyring cannot be unlocked. If I "cancel" it gives me an error saying the account details are wrong, but I log into my facebook, aim, and msn every day, so I know the passwords are correct.
I have read about other issues with the keyring and with the auto-login bug that is associated with it. I have also read up on the bug that occurs with that as well. I couldn't find anything about my specific situation, so I hope this isn't a re-post of an issue that has already dealt with, but I did look it up. If it helps, the laptop I am running is a HP Pavilion dv7-3065dx, and I have Ubuntu Desktop 10.04.1 x86 installed. Clean install and the only thing I have done was log in, connect to network, and try to set up Empathy. Both Empathy, and connecting to network, gave me the issues with the keyring. It appears that there is already a password for the default keyring, it is not blank, and my user login password does not work for it. I'm at a loss...

I know it's safer not to block the request for a password that unblocks the keyring but I'm desperate.
The more I use ubuntu more times I'm requested to provide the keyring password. Now, this time, i've typed 7 times!
is there a way to limit this nighmare. Every time I bootup i got tired.

Although all the passwords are under one Keyring folder, I have to type in the password 4 times. Is this the way the keyring is supposed to work? If so, can I help change this somehow(I'm not a programmer, unfortunately)? It seems that a lot of people have this problem and getting it to work out-of-the-box could bring in more potential users. (Also, different topic, is there anyway to make Dropbox wait until I enter keyring passwords to try to connect or wait until a connection is made to try to connect?

I managed to install the ubuntu One app on my desktop machine and it was working really well, but then it stopped working, when I forgot my password to the default keyring. How do I go about resetting the password to my keyring? Is this possible?

I want to remove/disable keyring. I want it to still save my passwords but not ask for a master password on boot. I am using 10.4 but it probably works the same...
