neagent always asking for authorization

Every time I connect my vpn or change connections, neagent asks to use my keychain to access the password and connect. I click "always allow" but it seems it doesn't take because every time I reconnect it asks me again. It used to work fine up until a few months ago, no password changes, everything the same.

Can anyone help?

Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at startup), does the problem occur in Safe Mode? Could take 10 minutes.


Safe mode attempts to repair Disks & clears lots of caches & loads safe Drivers, & prevents loading of 3rd party extensions, so if Safe Mode works try again in regular boot.


To find out if it's system wide or user specific, try this...


Open System Preferences>Users & Groups, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.


Does it work in the new account?
