Here's what I've done on my laptop to auto-login the keyrings. One main point is that the keyring password must be the same as your username password. I assume that this would work for different users as it stores the keyring in your home folder for each user, however I've never used more then one user so I'm unsure. The first thing to do is remove the keyring if the passwords are different by running:
- Code: Select all
rm ~/.gnome2/keyrings/default.keyring
You could also do this in Nautilus by browsing to the directory and deleting default.keyring.
Next thing is to install labpam-keyring, this enables auto-login for the keyring.
- Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install libpam-keyring
After this is installed you may need to restart to reset the password to the same password as your login password. I don't think it's needed but it might be.
We then need to edit a configuration file.
- Code: Select all
sudo gedit /etc/pam.d/gdm
Add following lines to the end of file:
- Code: Select all
# use session password for gnome-keyring
auth optional pam_keyring.so try_first_pass
session optional pam_keyring.so
