Our sign-on process uses a modified form of SRP. (See the draft white paper). It is not a traditional "authentication" process and so can't use other SSOs.
- baldfat 11y agoI won't recommend this to my company since I run 4 Linux boxes and there is no native Linux support (Means DEB, RPM and a TAR)
- coldtea 11y agoNot really a threat -- if they don't provide Linux support, then they know and accept already that people running Linux won't buy or recommend it.
- jpgoldberg 11y agoIt's more of a threat to us than you describe. If a potential team of N people have k members who need a Linux client, then that might cost us N customers, not just k.
- coldtea 11y agoYes, but that is still something you evaluated before not releasing a Linux client (opportunity cost, etc).
- boundlessdreamz 11y agoYes. We are a team of 3 and one of us uses Linux. What is missing when using the web app? Is there a feature comparison I can look at?
- AGKyle 11y agoThere's a fair bit missing. For now, the web client is read-only but we have full intention to make it able to edit, it just wasn't something we had time to do before the public beta. The app also includes filling directly into webpages (via a browser extension) so you don't need to copy and paste. This also includes the ability to save new logins as you create accounts. Filling Credit Card and Address information as well. Those are the two big features I think. The editing will show up on the web side but the filling part won't since it relies heavily on the client applications to do a great deal of the grunt work. We're well aware of the demand for a Linux client though. I think all of us on the team would love to see a Linux client, but "love to see" isn't enough to make it happen right now. I have most certainly written about this in my report I hope to send up the chain today so your voices aren't going unheard. Kyle AgileBits

- jpgoldberg 11y agoThe web app runs in Chrome, Firefox, and Opera. But nothing native yet.
