Description karl 2012-12-31 10:02:36 UTC

I have a SOGo with Kerberos SSO for IMAP CalDav and CardDav.
IMAP allows not using kwallet for password storage, so the imap resource does not ask for a password and logs in successfully with kerberos. But since kwallet usage is hardcoded in the dav groupware resource, it keeps me asking for the password. For a standard login I do not need to open kwallet, so this is a bit annoying.

Maybe there shoud be some way to choose the login mechanism like with imap/pop3/smtp. So one could choose between anonymous, password based and sso, ...


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. log in with a kerberos enabled account
2. set up a dav groupware account on a kerberos enabled server

Actual Results:  
Get asked for a password

Expected Results:  
not getting asked for a password

it does not matter what password you insert.

Is this still an issue with more recent versions?
