I have it installed and know what it does, but how do I initate it and have it start storing my passwords?

I could be wrong, but I belive that it is the applications that take advantage of it for saving your passwords. One example of this is gnome-vfs, instead of promping you for user name and passwords when browsing samba shares with nautilus, it uses the the gnome keyring to store your password.

Aahh. I was thinking more along the lines of KDE wallet. Something to store passwords, etc for web site and other assorted stuff.
