Bug Description

I believe this is in fact an error in gnome-keyring... : ( Anyways, when I use nautilus to browse various network folders on our company network, it never saves the domain/passwords that I tell it to. I wanted to start a nautilus browser and track what it does in the terminal, but browser detaches from the terminal at startup. : ( I'm not sure how I can get more information, but I would love to if someone can point me in the right direction.

Seems like this issue may only affect SMB related passwords.

I see that this issue has been opened under nautilus... I'll go ahead and mark this as a duplicate. But I'm leaving it as this is more appropriately opened under "gnome-keyring" rather than "nautilus". I also see there is a gnome bug about this. I'll link that, and the ubuntu forums thread about this issue.

I'm happy to do anything necessary to help figure this out.

Thank you for your bug. You are the one filling the duplicate, bug #67189 was open some time ago, yours has to be marking duplicate, not the other way around

Ah, very good then. I actually did it that way because my report seemed like the more appropriate package. : ( I was not sure if it mattered which way the duplicates were created. I'll keep that in mind for future reference.

Thanks Sebastien.

I see on the bottom left that it says this was initially uploaded to Feisty. This was supposed to be an Edgy bug. I don't know where I missed that, and I also don't see how to fix it. Sorry for any confusion that may have created.

No problem for the duplicate. You can change the package for a task by clicking on it so no need to open a new bug and duplicate you can just edit the bug already open or comment on it. We usually keep the already opened bug to not encourage people to file duplicates which give extra work to the bug team and because often already opened bug have comments and extra details on the bug

The left column mention the current version of the package to Ubuntu, not the version corresponding to the bug opened
