Changing some settings in the config file may not save (v. 1.66) about mremoteng

I can't seem to reproduce this. Could you clarify exactly what you are doing when this happens? I need step-by-step, exactly what you click and type.

OK, a little about how I use mRemoteNG:
I have three top folders for three separate domains. I have my creds listed in each. I then create subfolders for the various connections: DNS, Exchange, SharePoint, etc. and those are set to Inherit the top level creds. I the have the various connections in those folders and those are set to Inherit all. Sometimes, I need to duplicate some boxes because they may have service accounts or specialized logins (i.e. SharePoint has an installation account, so in the most recent duplication of connections, this is where I noticed it).

This I can reproduce

1. I'll right click an existing connection and click "Duplicate." It will highlight the newly duplicated item
2. Under config, Properties will be shown, so I click on the Inheritance button and change the "Inherit all" option to "No."
3. I then click back to the Properties button. I notice that the inheritance is still set because only the Display, Connection, and Gateway are there.
4. So, I click back on the Inheritance button to see that "Yes" is set for "Inherit all."

Again, this doesn't happen for everything; it just seems to happen on duplicates from what I can tell. I've also noticed that it can work the opposite way if I can set a name in properties, click to inheritance, change the hostname setting, and go back to properties and see the old name (the duplicate) still listed. I can't seem to reproduce that, but it happened on some SharePoint connections yesterday.

OK. I was able to duplicate this and find the cause. This is fixed and will be in 1.67 RC5.
