How to reset ftp connection credentials for KOrganizer?

I have set up KOrganizer so that it synchronises with a ics-file via ftp. This works fine but everytime KDE starts (and with it KOrganizer) I am asked again for login/password for the ftp connection, even though I klicked the "remember" function. After that I am being told by a pop-up that authorisation failed... but the connection works anyway, and it stores any changes I make also on the ftp server.

I think what contributed to this was the fact that I made a mistake the first time I entered the credentials. Even though I have repeatedly entered the correct data later, it seems to have stored only the first ones I entered.

Now, I would like to make KDE forget that ftp connection with login/password. But where is this information stored? Which file do I need to delete to reset the information?

Thanks for any hint!

Assuming you use KWallet, open KWalletManager and search for the appropriate entry. It may not be under KOrganizer or Kontact though.

Many thanks - this helped a lot: I was NOT using KWallet and was not aware that I would need to in order to save my credentials (on *NIX I have used Gnome or XFCE for the past ~10 years).
