OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

How to Reproduce
================

2) click on the hidden share (c$) for example
3) dialog box pops up asking for username and password

Confirmed on KDE 4.4 (from Ubuntu 9.10 PPA repository).

The smb password are never saved, even checking the option to do that.
Once logged in, the password is asked again every time you enter in that share. The password is also asked again even if you refresh from the same folder where you already sent the correct password.

I also can't open files from smb shares, because the password isn't asked when opening files, than I get access denied.

Sounds like same as bug 205892 and bug 228914

And possibly more... going through my search list and finding lots of these that may be duplicates.

This feature works definately as of 4.4.2 (introduced in 4.4.0?).

Therefore bug should be closed. It stores password in kwallet now and remembers it with a tick box.

Great.
