default keyring password

Hi,

When I configured my laptop, I set it up with a wired network then added
ndis_wrapper and wireless networking and network manager. Network manager
asked for a password for the default keyring so I gave it a password
(different to my login password). I now want to change this password,
how do I do it. I have done lots of googling and checking of the wiki but
can't find anything relevant. It does mention using PAM but this only
seems to work if using the same password as you login with. I did come
across a link that refers to a patch to gnome-keyring but that requires
installing non official ubuntu packages. Does anybody have any ideas
how to change the default keyring password with official ubuntu packages ?

TTFN

    ... still using network manager on 9.04? ... If so are you using the key-ring ... gnome-keyring asks you and gnome-keyring will never ever bother you ... to just use your login password by default and seed it into the keyring ...
