Password removed from keychain

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Connect to server
2. enter credentials and select Save to Keychain
3. Disconnect

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
What I see is that an OpenVPN-auth entry is created on connect.
On disconnect, the OpenVPN-auth entry disappears from the login keychain.

What I expect is that the entry in the login keychain stays put and is reused 
when I try to 
reconnect in stead of prompting for user credentials again.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
3.0b8 on OS X 10.5.4 with all available updates.

Please provide any additional information below.
Manually creating the OpenVPN-auth entry doesn't solve the problem.

What I also expect is that the entries in the keychain are created with a name 
depending on the 
connection. I have 3 connections and I expect some entries like:
OpenVPN-auth-connection1
OpenVPN-auth-connection2
OpenVPN-auth-connection3
Otherwise the entries will be overridden every time anyway.

on
3.0b12 (prior to removal)

Thanks for your report.

Was this was a one-time occurrence? 3.0b12 stores the data in the keychain 
using a different name than 
3.0b10 used, to support different credentials for different connections and 
usernames.

So, the first time 3.0b12 is used, it will request the credentials, and 
optionally store them under the new 
name. After that it should use the newly-stored version.

What version of OS X are you using? Intel or PowerPC?

Intel 10.5.7 and it happens every time I connect.  (or, was for the first day 
or so I
was using it).

I just ran a few tests and it seems to be behaving.

I was connected.
Disconnect.
Connect, asked for password, entered and saved.
Disconnect.
Connect, no password dialogue, it worked.
Disconnect.
Quit and restarted Tunnelblick.
Connect, worked without password again.

So, I don't know what was going on for the first connection or the other day, 
but if
I see this again I'll update.

Just ran some tests with a different endpoint and am seeing the wrong behaviour 
again.

Everytime it is requiring me to enter my username/password even though I am 
checking
the save to keychain tickybox.

I am seeing one OpenVPN-Auth-Connection-Name-Goes-Here entry in my login 
keychain,
but no new one for the other endpoint.  I am connecting to both endpoints at 
the same
time and this is working correctly.

Fixed in r168. (Had to do with two or more connections trying to add to the 
Keychain simultaneously).

I'm using 3.0b18 build 576 and I am still experiencing this problem of not 
saving the password in the keychain.
I have Snow 10.6.1

What should I do?
Please help,
Thanks

lupocos - The first thing to check is if the username/password, or passphrase, 
are being saved properly. Save 
them or it again with no connections active (i.e., trying to connect to a 
single VPN).

The username should be stored in the Tunnelblick preferences as 
XXX-authUsername, where XXX is the name 
of your configuration (without the .ovpn or .conf). (If you don't know how to 
check this, see the section about 
Preferences in the "Using Tunnelblick" wiki.

The password that goes with the username is stored in the Keychain as 
OpenVPN-Auth-XXX.

If, instead of a username/password, you have a passphrase, it is in the 
Keychain as OpenVPN-XXX.

You can inspect your Keychain with Keychain Access.app, which is in 
/Applications/Utilities

So: are they stored correctly?

Fixes have been committed for several password-storage related issues with 
3.0b18 and 3.0b20. A new release, 
which will include the fixes, should be out in the next week or so.
