When I access to a NTLM proxy, I'm asked to enter login and password. When I enable the option "Remember the password" (translated from Czech) and click OK, window disappear, the authentication data are used, I'm able to connect to the internet. But I'm not asked for kwallet password and the authentication details are not stored. Next time, I've to enter them again. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure KDE to use NTLM proxy that needs Login/password 2. Try to connect to some webpage 3. The NTLM proxy authentication dialog is shown 4. Fill login and password, enable "Remember the password" option and hit OK Actual Results: Dialog window disappear, login and password are not stored in kwallet. Next time, I've to enter these data again. Expected Results: System asks for kwallet password and save authentication data for next time This is not just an issue of KDE 4.13 beta. It is present in 4.12 as well.
Does kwallet integration work for everything else? For example if you ssh into your machine, does it ask you for the kwallet password?

Yes. I'm using kwallet to store passwords in Krusader (fish://). Works correctly.
Thanks for the update, changing status.
Marian, are you sure the login/password is not stored in kwallet ? I a similar problem, but I'm not sure if it is the same. At work we switched to a NTLM-authenticated proxy configured by an auto-configuration URL (previously there was no authentication). On the first access, I had the expected window asking for authentication. I entered my login/password and checked the "Remember my password". I do have two entries in the "kdewallet" wallet under "Passwords / Maps" named "http-<host{1,2}>:<port>". The two entries are due to the script However, KDE keeps asking for authentication. After opening my KDE session, the first proxy-authentication window shows empty login/password fields. If I check "Remember my password", the fields are filled-in with the right values the next times the window appears. In that case, clicking "OK" is sufficient to proceed successfully. After some time, when I access an external URL, I have a message "The proxy authentication failed." with buttons Retry/Abort. If I click Retry, I get the classic authentication window with empty fields again. If I enter another login/password, it is stored in the kdewallet entry as login-2 / password-2. So I have the impression that the data is stored in kwallet, but somehow not retrieved when needed. It seems that when I access a web page, several kio slaves are started in parallel and each opens a connection to the proxy. The proxy asks authentication to each of them. Once the first one got authenticated, maybe the KIO runtime interprets the following queries as "If the Proxy asks authentication again, the login/password must be incorrect." Distribution : Gentoo KDE Version : 4.14.3
Hi, thanks for the comment. I can confirm, that in kwallet manager I can see the proxy connection data. The point with checking "Remember my password" in blank dialog is interesting. I'll try it, but i don't know, when I'll be again on site where ntlm proxy is used.
