Description

Gnome keyring is supposed to be started with the user's session in order to serve passwords to applications. However when using it for Wifi passwords, the password is asked every time the user enters his session. Investigations showed that it doesn't seem to be really working, although the daemon is active. Gnome keyring documentation is available online:

with a dedicated page for Automatic Unlocking / PAM:
