Description Jose Hernandez 2004-04-14 22:41:35 UTC
Version:           v0.8.3 (using KDE 3.2.90 (CVS >= 20040117), compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2.3 20030422 (Gentoo Linux 1.4 3.2.3-r3, propolice)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.20-gentoo-r6

I have added many downloads in queue that are from different password sites. After restarting KGET and going through the download list, for each site, it asks the password of that site if it hasn't already, and pre-fills the USERNAME/PASSWORD areas. The effect is that queue downloading does not work if I am  not here to click the 'Ok" button every time.

Bug: There should be no dialog for password sites at all if kget already has the username/password.

Here's a variation of this bug:  when I download multiple files from the same site, kget generally doesn't cache the user/pass but asks me to reconfirm them for each file.  (I say "generally" because I'm not sure if this always happens-- I think kget doesn't prompt me again if I've already reconfirmed within the last minute or so?  Not sure.)  As in the original report, the form is prefilled with the user & pass, which is good.  But I still have to be there to click OK, making automated downloads impossible.

This was last reported against version 2.2.0. Is this still valid with version 2.8.0 or later?
