Mageia forum

Hello,

The problem: Everytime I login I'm asked for the password to my samba share. Gigolo attempts to automount the share using gvfs, but I'm always asked for the password even though I select 'Remember forever'. The password is supposed to be stored by gnome-keyring which is installed. I've used Gigolo on several other distributions and this does not happen.

The odd thing about Mageia is that it mounts to: /run/user/username/gvfs. This is shown by this:

Code: Select all

[bob@localhost ~]$ mount | grep gvfs
gvfs-fuse-daemon on /run/user/bob/gvfs type fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=500,group_id=500)

Every other distribution mounts to: ~/.gvfs, so I wonder if this is causing the problem. I just don't know. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Bob

Well, I found the problem. Following this guide: https://live.gnome.org/GnomeKeyring/Pam

I edited /etc/pam.d/kdm with:

Code: Select all

auth    optional        pam_gnome_keyring.so
...
session optional        pam_gnome_keyring.so  auto_start

Now I just need to figure out who to contact at Mageia to fix it.
