Ubuntu Security :: Access To Keyring - Locked Password
Sep 3, 2010
I would like to use a wireless network, I type in the correct password but suddenly a new window pops up saying: 'an application wants to access to the keyring 'Vorgabe', but its is locked password:'
But I don't know what password it's talking about
I went to Password and Encryption keys, there are two folders
'password: vorgabe'
'Password: login'

ubuntu-one is trying to access the keyring @ boot but it is locked. Under Password:default (in accessories-passwords and encryption) there is: UbuntuONE token for https://ubuntuone.com (key id 1) Which I assume it needs As well as 2 others Desktop Coach and one for gmail pop It is annoying I have to give it the keyring password @ boot. I also have Passwords: Login seperate from default This is annoying having to enter the keyring password @ boot time.

I've got an error message saying "An application wants access to the keyring 'default' but it is locked" when I log in as a guest. I can't remember the password that I used. Is there any way to reset this password or if not, how do I remove my guest account and set a new one up?

I am sometimes getting the following msg, asking me for a password... enter password for default keyring to unlock, the application 'Account Manager' (/usr/libexec/mission-control-5) wants access to default keyring, but it is locked. I have never seen this before and I have no idea what the password would be (since I've never set a "keyring" password).

This "An Application wants access to the keyring "default", but it is locked. Goes on and I've a few question about the procedure.
The first is how do I determine WHAT application wants access. Seems to me that I need to know what is going on with programs trying to log in.
If I knew what program is needing access, I could determine if I wanted to provide permanent, temporary, or no access.
How can I determine what is happening at startup.

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 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.

When I installed Ubuntu (Lucid) on my new computer, As well as the login password I was asked for a keyring password. I gave one, but I am not sure exactly why I need this password. It seems that it was required to let me access the wifi - even though this has its own security code. I found I could stop the system asking for it every time I tried to connect to the internet using wifi by checking a button in the network setup, but when I registered for Ubuntu One, I was again asked for it - twice, once when I registered and again when I set up Tomboy notes sync. Now I get asked for it again every time I switch on.
I would like to know why the keyring passwords are needed in addition to the login password for a single user computer, which mine is and also how I can stop it asking for this password when I switch the computer on. One suggestion I have seen is to make the keyring password the same as my login password. If that is the case, then how do I change the keyring password?

Some how I seem to be locked out of my desktop computer. My password isn't working. For some reason all of a sudden it seems to have stopped working. I tried to reboot and now I'm locked out, I can't login. And I'm the only sudo user. How can I fix it or even reset my password

I have a standard home set-up for my Ubuntu OS, and I would like to know whether its possible to cut out the repetitive prompts to enter the password, as when you connect to the internet or access files on a partition that's not home, or install new software.

I just changed my password now every time I start my computer the keyring wants my old password and it keeps doing weird things even after I type it in. Like Ubuntu will say No keyring found or something to that effect anyway.

My computer is recently asking for my 'default keyring password'to get access to the internet. It never used to do this as I am single user and never created a keyring password as far as I know. I dont even use a login password.Luckily i tried my administrator password and that unlocks my keyring but I would like to get it back to no password or auto unlock mode.

Is there a way to identify exactly what application is asking for keyring access at the given time? I get this query every boot and it's getting annoying. The annoyance is there, but more importantly and from a personal security standpoint on desktop systems, it's pretty bad that it doesn't say what application want's the access.

I've just started using the amazingly useful Ubuntu One, but I can't sync files from my computer, due to the pesky locked keyring, default, which wishes to be unlocked. Unfortunately, I have no idea what the password for the default keyring is. Is there any way I could find this out? I've included a screenshot, just in case.

I can't remotely access my desktop when the desktop is asking for a keyring password. Why does this happen? it means that remote access is useless because you would need to enter the password locally before you can vnc to it. I do not wish to disable the default keyring but is there a way of making vnc work so I can enter the password.

I was doing something -- new network config, I think -- and got a dialog box asking for "Keyring Access" credentials. In a memory lapse, I entered the root password instead of the current user password. Now I have this login and password messy dance to go through very often. On accounts where I have not made this mistake, it seems that the keyring gets is details from the current login session and I don't get frequent nagging for keyring access credentials.
How do I un-set or reset the Keyring Access details so that I can use the correct password [aka, "current user"] instead of the root password?

I have a dual boot machine and recently did a fresh install of 10.4. It no longer asks for a password to access the Windows partition and I full access to it. This seems insecure to me and was wondering if someone else came across this. I thought I saw this topic discussed before but I can not seem to find it now. Is this a bug or a new unpleasant feature?I don't think it makes a difference but I do have a separate encrypted home partition on this fresh install. I have also done two fresh installs. (Well three...once testing out KDE but didn't try the Win partition. )

I have been reading guides for a while now and so far have not found an exact solution to my problem.
I want a linux user (dave) to be able to switch to another account (patrol) without a password prompt, but dave must still be denied access to root. Patrol must also be denied root access.
In the sudoers file
Code:
User_Alias Patrol=dave,john
root ALL=(ALL) ALL
Patrol ALL=(patrol) NOPSSWD: ALL
[Code].....

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?
