Description

When password keystore (with a master password) is enabled and a password for a ldap connection should be stored this is ignored. Instead a dialog window asking for the password is shown every time.
If password keystore is not enabled (so passwords will be stored in plain text) everything is fine.

I tried to hunt down the bug and it should be in UIAuthHandler, following Patch helped for me:
