I used to use pam_ssh and pam_keyring to unlock ssh keys and the gnome keyring when logging in, both having the same password as my login password. However, in fedora 9, this doesn't seem to work, I am still prompted for a password the first time I use ssh and the first time some program wants to access the keyring.
Might this be a side effect of the completely new (and seemingly unfinished, uncustomizable and undocumentend) new gdm? Or is there something else I am missing here.
Here is the contents of my /etc/pam.d/gdm which si almost the same as what I had working on fedora 7:
#%PAM-1.0 auth [success=done ignore=ignore default=bad] pam_selinux_permit.so auth required pam_env.so auth substack system-auth auth optional pam_gnome_keyring.so auth optional pam_keyring.so try_first_pass auth optional pam_ssh.so try_first_pass account required pam_nologin.so account include system-auth password include system-auth session required pam_selinux.so close session required pam_loginuid.so session optional pam_console.so session required pam_selinux.so open session optional pam_keyinit.so force revoke session required pam_namespace.so session optional pam_gnome_keyring.so auto_start session optional pam_keyring.so session optional pam_ssh.so session include system-auth
I also noticed there is a new pam_gnome-Keyring, but I haven't had any luck with that one either.

Gnome keyring is now set to automatically unlock ssh keys. This has been working well for me since updating to F9. Perhaps something here will help: http://live.gnome.org/GnomeKeyring/Ssh

So absically, pam_gnome_keyring should be the only one I need? I'll give it a try!

Even that shouldn't be needed. Gnome should create a login.keyring in ~/.gnome2/keyrings. That keyring will be unlocked automatically on login and it is where NM, among others, stores its passphrases.
