Password asked to open openvpn connection at panel

[pwmguitar]

Hi!
This is my first thread here and I'll try to do my best to explain my question. I have to note that english is not my first language so I apologize in advance

Brief explanation:
I use OpenVPN and I did set up it and it's working. When I click on "Network" shortcut on the down right panel - near clock/calendar there's a sub-menu "VPN CONNECTIONS"> vpnname. By clicking on "vpnname" connection that is already set up it usually connects (left-mouse click) authomatically - unless "ask every time" is checked. What I find interesting is that before I type my VPN password (or it auto connects) the system asks me for my user password in order to be able to access the VPN connection.

I LOVE that feature and I could never imagine how to do it by myself.
Question:
Is this feauture (asking for user password in order to connect to a VPN) set up by default or did I configure this by accident?
I know that in order to edit/delete connections user password are asked; what I don't get is how to configure my network manager gui to pop out a password fill every time in order to connect to a openvpn.
Short: If someone get access to my computer, the person will not be able to connect to my VPN even If the vpn password is saved on the system.

despite my bad grammar I hope you understand my question

Thanks !

Hello!

At the risk of being wrong, this sounds like a keyring to me. Now I have an example of where one can be USEFUL.

I'm glad you find it of use to you. Most who encounter it scream, "How can I turn that bloody thing OFF?"...

Well , maybe If I can find someone who disabled this feature successfully, I will be able to learn how to do it when using other distro or installing distro for other people

Anyway I still don't know if this feature is on by default. I'd need to install it on a harddrive to simulate but my hardrive is already working on dual boot. I wouldn't go futher than 2 OS on my system for now.
