Both of my computers always ask me for my keychain password after logging in. I think this started when I updated to 10.3, but I'm not positive about that. I have run the Keychain repair utility and that didn't help. Anyone know how to fix this?

I've done that a few times. It's already selected, but I have unselected and reselected multiple times with no effect.
