[Bug 876105] Re: Remote Desktop Viewer (vinagre) does not remember passwords
Sigh indeed Michael :) .. what you described is case #4 in my initial
report.. Vinagre remembers passwords while it is still open, as soon as
it's closed, all passwords are forgotten. (mind you, I haven't tried
this with multiple hosts to see if only the last used password is
remembered..?)

Title:
Remote Desktop Viewer (vinagre) does not remember passwords
Status in “vinagre” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I'm using Vinagre in Ubuntu 11.10 AMD64, and have found that it does
not remember passwords (when told to via the "Remember this
credential" checkbox), except when a connection has been established,
disconnected, then the Remote -> Recent Connections menu is used
(without closing Vinagre; after being closed it will not remember the
password).
Give this a go: (#4 is the only combination that works for remembering
passwords)
1. Connect to site -> enter password -> check "Remember this
credential" -> connect. Bookmark site. Close and restart vinagre.
Bookmarks -> bookmarked site. Password not remembered.
2. Start vinagre. Bookmarks menu -> last site. Password not
remembered.
3. Start vinagre. Remote menu -> Recent Connections -> last site.
Password not remembered.
4. Connect to site -> enter password -> check "Remember this
credential" -> connect. Click disconnect. Remote menu -> Recent
Connections -> last site. *Password REMEMBERED*. (this is the only
case where I've got Vinagre to remember the password)
This wasn't a problem in Ubuntu 11.04.
