when I register my remote glassfish instances, I now am prompted every time I start the ide to give authentication details. this is a huge pain. netbeans needs to allow the user to save the credentials in the ide so that user credentials do not need to be re-entered each and every time. this is highly annoying. especially when you have multiple remote server instances registered!! while I understand that this might be a security risk, surely we can at least give the user the option of storing their credentials. another option is to allow the creds to be encrypted.

This is a good proposal. Unfortunately we won't make it before 7.2 release because it's too late to start implementing new functionality now. I'm planning this for next NetBeans release and assigning to myself.
Note from bug# 212440 (closed as duplicated): --------------------------------------------- I agree that this is annoying and it should be addressed. But it's not a show stopper or critical bug. I'm changing this bug to priority P3. I see the same problem when working with NetBeans 7.2 development branch and having GlassFish configured as remote server (HTTPS with user/password set in DAS). Actual code does not contain anything to store GlassFish passwords in org.netbeans.modules.glassfish.common.AdminAuthenticator class. It just asks for username and password using this annoying popup window when it needs some. This must be changed to store username and password together with other GlassFish attributes. I'm changing this bug to priority P3 and enhancement type because this functionality is not implemented yet.

I added 2 additional fields into server registration wizard to let user specify user name and password. Now pop up window will appear only when user name and/or password do not match with registered server. changeset: 231028:437b344e0101 summary: Bug# 209250 - Added administrators user name and password into server registration wizard changeset: 231029:bb6ef9226088 summary: Bug# 209250 - Username and password fields from GlassFish registration wizard are integrated into call methods (both old and tooling SDK).
