Is this keyring similar in concept to the KDE kwallet (I do not use gnome at all - all users' first sessions are in KDE, gnome never actually starts) ? If so, I use kwallet everyday. The nice think about it is that there's an initialization phase at the very beginning in which the user is asked to create a password. With the keyring what I find is odd, is that it seemingly uses a password that was never created by the user. Or, a default password I wouldn't try, like 'admin'. I've entered all three passwords that I created related to the laptop (several times to be sure I haven't made any typos) and none satisfied the keyring master. root, user and AP passwords. There are no other passwords related to this context. > that gets you back to the start. Then the next time it asks you for a > password for your 'keyring' - pay attention to what you enter.

I'm porceeding with care here since this laptop is a gift and the birthday is coming near. I wouldn't want to screw things up badly at this point. In parallel I will try Aaron's suggestion and use the plain network management utility. I'd sure would like to use the latest technology, though as it surely is better (sarcasm, a bit).
