Re: [Subclipse-users] Managing users and passwords in Subclipse

Hello Alexander,

thank you for your answer.
I deleted the auth folder, and it seems the passwords are gone (I was
not able to identify the correct individual file to delete - subclipse
still got connected). But now I have to accept the server certificate
and provide user and password any time subclipse connects to the
server.

What I donīt understand that is that there is a checkbox in subclipse
"save passwords". What is the effect of this? If subclipse is able to
control if passwords are stored in JavaHL, why doesnīt it save them
itself?

It took me some time even to find the relevant information in the
subclipse book. Is there any wiki to add this information?

Besides of the password issue, is there any possibility to control
with which several possible users subclipse connects without having
to delete cached information?

Regards, Ebe
