Comment 66 for bug 271097

I hope I am not confusing things here for you, but I had the very same problem in hardy (in my case, the password kept reverting to an old one). Turns out, nm was reading from 'Default' keyring while saving to 'login' (which was set as application keyring in the keyring preferences). Deleting 'Default' and loggin out & in solved the problem for me. I don't recall ever creating any keyrings myself, so I think they may have been triggered by the system or some appliction (or update process; my current install came from feisty). Could it be this simple for the Intrepid problems as well?
