Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.7.2) OS: Linux I configured krfb as follows (~/.kde/share/config/krfbrc): [Security] allowUninvitedConnections=true askOnConnect=false uninvitedConnectionPassword=supersecret Whatever I do (multiple clients, invitation), i always get "Failed login attempt from ...: wrong password" Even with Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure krfb as described 2. try vnc -> kde-user@lcoalhost 3. I get the wrong password error Same happens with invitation and also when I don't use a username at all. Actual Results: wrong password error Expected Results: vnc session running OS: Linux (x86_64) release 3.0.0-0300-generic Compiler: gcc
Of course I used the password "supersecret" when krdc(!) asked me for it.

Git commit bc755b81d849198b034b4cdeec27711cb7d576e9 by Alexey Min. Committed on 26/08/2020 at 12:55. Pushed by alexeymin into branch 'fix_storing_config'. Make sure to save security settings each time they are modified Settings that are modified using normal settings window, which is invoked using menu "Configure Desktop Sharing..." are always saved correctly. However some settings that are present on Krfb main window (normal password, unattended password, checkbox "enable unattended access") are not handled by KConfigDialog and there is a chance that settings might not be saved correctly (for example if application was suddenly terminated). This hopefully fixes some bugs which are present since year 2011-2014 and have 110 votes, like https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=340411, maybe something else.
