Ralf, all:
The kde egroupware integration works very well, but there is one nagging bug.
I don’t know if this needs to be fixed by egw or kde. The problem is session
timeout and no ability to re-authorize without completely shutting down the
kde app (kontact, kmail, etc…)
What appears to be happening when you leave kmail or kontact up for an hour
or so (I guess beyond the session timeout) is that the next time you try and
add or update a contact or calendar entry, you are then presented with the
Auth dialog, but the user name shown is something like:
Username: lbhaljadsgn;iohvgnklsejfnbsdkflsdk
Password:
Instead of the original Username/Password used to define the groupware
connection, like:
Username: Joe
Password:
If you enter the password that you defined in the "groupware connection"
wizard, authentication fails. If you change the Username to the username that
you defined in the “groupware connection” wizard, authentication still fails.
At this point, you have no choice but to kill and restart the app which I
guess starts a new session.
There should be a way to fix the Auth dialog that you are presented with in
kmail, etc. so that it prompts for the correct username and password allowing
you to reestablish the connection/session without having to completely restart
the application
Is this an egw or kde issue?
P.S.: It is really cool to see the eGroupWare connection option as the "First"
groupware option presented in the KDE4 Groupware Connection Wizard!! egw has
come a long way since 1.0. Great job all!
