Pam Keyring [solved]

I have searched around and have seen that pam-keyring has been obsoleted and (possibly?) replace by /lib/security/pam_gnome_keyring.so.

However I am not able to find anywhere that will tell me how to use this new method to automatically unlock the keyring and therefore not have nm-applet ask me for a password on every boot.  Can someone please help?

Re: Pam Keyring [solved]

I set this up yesterday, it only involves editing a few files,

In /etc/pam.d/gdm, add lines like this at the end of the 'auth', 'session' blocks:

auth    optional        pam_gnome_keyring.so
session optional        pam_gnome_keyring.so  auto_start

In /etc/pam.d/gnome-screensaver, add a line like this to the 'auth' block:

auth    optional        pam_gnome_keyring.so

In /etc/pam.d/passwd, add a line like this to the 'password' block:

password        optional        pam_gnome_keyring.so

This will log you in to the login keyring when you log in.
and for other keyrings gives you the option to login automatically th password for the keyrings will be sored in the login key ring.
