- muellerwolfram 14y agowow thats so cool. for a long time now, i've been looking for a solution. i tried keepass, but it doesn't really work well in linux, and i don't have my passwords on other computers. then i tried lastpass, but i don't like the idea of my passwords beeing stored somewhere else (even though they are encrypted). this sounds like a solid solution to the easy-to-remember but different-password-for-each-site problem. definitely gonna give it a try.
- stcredzero 14y agoi tried keepass, but it doesn't really work well in linux The integration might be less than for Windows and OS X. It works great for me on those systems, though. i don't have my passwords on other computers. I just keep a KeePass file in Dropbox. I also have a KeePass app on my phone.
- Nick_C 14y ago> i tried keepass, but it doesn't really work well in linux, Try KeePassX http://www.keepassx.org/ http://www.keepassx.org/ which works really well in Linux. It even has a hot key to push username and password into the appropriate fields in the browser. I installed it a week or so ago (after trying others) and am pretty impressed so far.
- JoyxBen 14y agothis is perfect, thanks for the tip Edit: I notice it uses MD5 though. Question: how secure would this kind of system be with bcrypt and an OS X Password Assistant "memorable" 12 char password?
