Solve : How to disable password saving??

Answer»

We just upgraded the emulation tool for the users (we are now using esker software...smarterm 12.1). The connection type is an SSH connection, but we do not want the users to be able to check the box to save the user id and password...we want them to key it in everytime. Does anyone know how I can disable this feature? I attached a screenprint of the login box...and you will see there is a save box with an option to check it. We have passwords expire every 90 days, so giving the user the ability to store it will only cause mass confusion when the passwords change. Please let me know....thanks.

[Saving disk space - old attachment deleted by admin]Is this really a linux question? Tell us more about the system you are using. If you're using Windows, you might want to ask this question in the windows forum, not the linux forum.Also the program will need to support disabling the save password feature, if it doesn't there isn't a lot to do about it.
Where and how are passwords actually saved? Are they at a central location (server) that the admin has complete control of?LOOKING at SmarTerm I see its a Windoze SSH (and VT100, 3270) client.

If you don't need the EXTRA functionality to connect to IBM 3270 and VAX VT100 terminal servers, then why not delete it from the users' PCs, and use an application that doesn't have the option to save passwords.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I've not yet found an option to save passwords in PUTTY which is a FREE Windoze ssh client.
