Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Damien Carbery (daymobrew) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: plaintextpasswords.php page doesn't mention gnome-keyring Initial Comment: The http://gaim.sourceforge.net/plaintextpasswords.php page doesn't mention the support that gaim has for gnome-keyring. It probably falls into the "Store a password(s) behind a password" category. FYI: A blogger, http://blogs.sun.com/darren/entry/gaim_password_storage_insecure, mentions additional scenarios where plain text passwords are a problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Damien Carbery (daymobrew) Date: 2007-04-06 16:30 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=843868 Originator: YES Oops, my mistake. I work for the JDS/GNOME group in Sun Microsystems. We added support for gnome-keyring in our builds. http://cvs.opensolaris.org/source/xref/jds/spec-files/trunk/patches/gaim-06-gnome-keyring.diff If you are interested in the feature, I will make a note to ask the author of the patch to submit it to you. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Date: 2007-04-06 04:01 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=325843 Originator: NO There is no mention of gnome-keyring support because gaim doesn't currently have any support for gnome-keyring. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100235&aid=1694961&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
