Обсуждение: saved passwords lost when connection fails

PgAdmin doesn't retain the saved passwords when a connection to a server fails.

I'd like to request that the saved passwords be kept, even in the event of a failure.

I realize that if the failure is due to an incorrect password, there needs to be a way to enter a new one, but if the password is correct and the server is not running, the password should not be removed.

That request should be directed to PgAdmin (http://www.pgadmin.org/) - a
project related-to but separate-from PostgreSQL. It is likely that a
request like this will raise a host of security problems.

It has already been on pgadmin-support. I'll answer it shortly.
