[gentoo-user] The KDE wallet

[gentoo-user] The KDE wallet

[reader]

Anytime I have to login to a site A window pops up from KDE wallet
offering to save it or whatever.  I never want this but I see no
button or choice to tell KDE never to show it again for any site.

Close as it gets is a button saying `never for this site'

How to turn this `helpful' offer ... OFF?

My limited experience with wallet is that is was a hassle  which is why it was limited experience <G>.  If "Never again for this site doesn't work" try opening the wallet configuration - click or right click on the wallet icon if I remember right and see if you any settings there work.  

Wallet worked fine for Knode - at least it didn't ask too much but for Kmail it asked every single time I logged in.  I finally turned Kwallet off.

There is a tickbox that is selected to "Enable KDE Wallet".  Of course,
if you do this, you will remove the wallet functionality completely. 
However, you do have the capability to create multiple wallets for those
times you want or don't want it.

HTH,

open kwalletmanager (click on the symbol in tray).

Click on settings

the first point:
 'Activate KDE Walletsystem' or so ;)

KDE Brieftaschensytem aktivieren in german.

deactivate it (uncheck the box), save settings, close.

Or you can set it never to close and not to notify when an application
want to write to it. Then you'll only have one dialog per session.

I find Kwallet incredibly useful, as it means I can use lots of different
passwords for various sites and servers without having to remember them
all. It's saved me a fortune in Post-It notes :)

Hmm, I'll have to go back and  look at it again. I wanted to use it for the same reason you do - to handle all those passwords but maybe my use was flawed.  I'll check it out again.

Thanks.

I use it all the time and the only thing I am missing is that it does
not also click next when I OK it, so as to submit the data (like Opera
does).

yeah, kwallet manages 3 mail accounts and passwords for over 30 sites for me.

It would be awfull to remember all these - impossible! 
The alternatives would be post-its or using only four or five passwords. Both 
is not very convincing.

In short, I love kwallet ;)

No, you got it right the first time.  Its just more clicky clack
annoying useless baloney.  a Waste of time.  People have too short of
memories and it is.  For my shortness problem I use an encrypted
directory where running a script I wrote `jkfind ARG' at a prompt will
produce any password or uid setting out of dozens of them.

No wasted clicky clack and no annoying diaglog box suddenly springing
out of nowhere usually obscuring something you are trying to see.

I've got into the habit of hitting Return twice, so I don't notice that
any more.
