    Keyring error blocking VNC?

    I'm trying to use VNC on my headless desktop server that's running lucid, but I can only use SSH because a pop asking me to unlock the keyring shows up every time I try to use VNC. I don't have a monitor for that desktop, so I was wondering, is there any way to remove the keyring/to automatically unlock it during autologin? I don't remember what a site I found it on, but I used this to remove my keyring yesterday. It's no longer working today.
    Code:
    rm ~/.gnome2/keyrings/login.keyring

    It's a bug. See:

    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...no/+bug/562423

    There is a workaround in reply #11 in the thread. (Base64 encoding
    of the password that is mentioned therein can be done with the "base64"
    command, see "man base64" for details.)

    Would this be possible to do with a Windows SSH client?

    *legal bump* I can't log onto SSH for some reason, but FTP works. I'll just have to move everything over there.edit fixed
