Comment 9 for bug 1818289

Michael,

I replied before I had clicked on your link.  The Confirmation showed I
had a bad password somewhere, but it kept repeating when I tried an
alternate possible password spelling I may have used so I am not so sure
that gave me a clear guide.

I tried to discover the bad password, but Passwords and Keys did not
have an entry for Backups so that did not work for me.

I have installed the beta Deja-Dup and have done a manual backup with it
already which it did without asking me for a password or key.  The
scheduled backup is Thursday so I live in hopes that it will happen
automatically.

Thank you.

John Bell
