Keychain Issues With NoMAD

I'm having issues with Keychain, I think NoMAD is one to blame.

I have set:

<key>LocalPasswordSync</key>

And it's working fine, changing password from machine, or AD (I also have

<key>UPCAlert</key>

so I get notified). Everything gets synced, but I started getting strange messages, that I need to put my keychain Login password. If I enter new or old password, the result is same, it doesn't recognize it as a password.

So, I get popups from Apps and WiFi gets disconnected as well, asking for Keychain password.

Is there a particular plist tag which has to be included to sync Keychain, apart from

<key>UseKeychain</key>

which I use, but I don't get password synced.

Thank you.

You can specify items within the keychain to sync. I'm deploying NoMAD prefs via config file with mixed success.

KeychainItems Dictionary

I've had issues with SignInWindowAlert prompting and not accepting credentials, but nothing quite like what you described.

Justin,

I am having trouble using this feature and having it work. Could you provide one of your examples?

I've discussed it with Apple Engineer, this might be a High Sierra issue. Keychain is broken, actually, I know that there is something wrong with it for years now, but that's another topic. Anyways, I don't remember having this kind of issues on Sierra
