Re: how to change keyring password?

mv ~/.gnome2/keyrings/login.keyring ~/.gnome2/keyrings/login.keyring.bak

This will backup the keyring file (you may want to check to make sure it's not default.keyring since I'm not on a linux box at the moment to check). The next time a keyring password is needed you should be asked to set the password.

I'm also looking to change my password and the suggested fix didn't seem to work. Any other ideas please?
