Hi, can anyone tell me how to reset the keyring password? I forgot what I assigned it and don't want to go through another install.

Thanks

For a Gnome DE you should have a directory in "~/.gnome2/keyrings/" or similar. (In case you do not know, "~" = "/home/Your_user_name" directory)

Open your terminal and run:

Code: Select all

rm ~/.gnome2/keyrings/login.keyring
Please make sure that you have the correct path in the command.
