You will most probably find your answer in this mailing list thread
at @Dev: https://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2020-08/0004.shtml

TLDR: Saving passwords in plaintext is (from some version) a non-default
compile time option. You may try to convince the Pi-OS maintainers to
enable this option again.

You might be able to get this to work using a keyring, but I don't have any
experience with it (I'm mostly a Windows guy).

I've been planning to check why the script provided by Daniel Shahaf
doesn't work, because I would also like to be able to save passwords from
time to time.

Kind regards
Daniel
