Description Orion Poplawski 2008-12-08 18:41:27 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.1.3)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

Doing RDP connection to windows machine.  Krdc asks me which username to use, then kwallet password.  It fills out the login window, but it fails because the password is old.  I enter the new password into the login window and get on.  But the kwallet password does not appear to get updated because this happens every time I log in.
Comment 1 Urs Wolfer 2008-12-13 15:47:10 UTC
KRDC does not get a response from the RDP server if the password was okay. So if it failed, we cannot update it. The only way to change the password is IMHO in KWallet.
I would like to fix it if possible, but I see no way to do so... :(

Perhaps a tab context menu could have an option to "update" the password?
Comment 3 Urs Wolfer 2009-06-29 19:25:44 UTC
Do you mean a contextmenu in the host settings dialog?
Comment 4 Brendan Hide 2009-06-29 20:10:16 UTC
I was actually thinking a context menu on the server's tab, though the host settings dialog might be a better place.

It might be good for a right-click or some other action on the server tab that then bring up the host settings dialog?

Anyway, in the host settings dialog, it would probably be best to have a new button next to the password reference:
"[x]Remember password (KWallet)  [ Update Password ]"

or at least something close to that.

I agree with your suggestion.

this bug still exists in Wily...
Comment 9 Jarno Malmari 2016-10-13 08:21:48 UTC
The patch is for the file vnc/vncview.cpp. This bug report was for the RDP.
