====== Introduction ====== ===== keepassx ===== KeePassX is an application for people with extremly high demands on secure personal data management. It has a light interface, is cross platform and published under the terms of the GNU General Public License. KeePassX saves many different information e.g. user names, passwords, urls, attachments and comments in one single database. For a better management user-defined titles and icons can be specified for each single entry. Furthermore the entries are sorted in groups, which are customizable as well. The integrated search function allows to search in a single group or the complete database. KeePassX offers a little utility for secure password generation. The password generator is very customizable, fast and easy to use. Especially someone who generates passwords frequently will appreciate this feature. The complete database is always encrypted either with AES (alias Rijndael) or Twofish encryption algorithm using a 256 bit key. Therefore the saved information can be considered as quite safe. KeePassX uses a database format that is compatible with KeePass Password Safe. This makes the use of that application even more favourable. Originally KeePassX was called KeePass/L for Linux since it was a port of Windows password manager Keepass Password Safe. After KeePass/L became a cross platform application the name was not appropriate anymore and therefore, on 22 March 2006 it has been changed. ===== keepass2 ===== KeePass2 is a free/open-source password manager or safe which helps you to manage your passwords in a secure way. You can put all your passwords in one database, which is locked with one master key or a key file. So you only have to remember one single master password to unlock the whole database. The databases are encrypted using AES-256. ====== Links ====== ===== General ===== [[http://keepass.info/|keepass2]]\\ [[https://www.keepassx.org/|keepassx]]\\ ====== Docs ====== None ====== Files and Directories ====== None ===== General Files and Directories ===== None ===== Configuration Files ===== None ====== Getting Help ====== Manual pages for //keepass2//: user@host:~$ man keepass2 Manual pages for //keepassx//: user@host:~$ man keepassx ====== Install ====== To install //keepass2// on Debian: root@host:~$ apt-get update root@host:~$ apt-get -y install keepass2 keepass2-doc To install //keepassx// on Debian: root@host:~$ apt-get update root@host:~$ apt-get -y install keepassx ====== Configuration ====== None ====== Usage ====== To start //keepass2//: user@host:~$ /usr/bin/keepass2 To start //keepassx//: user@host:~$ /usr/bin/keepassx [] ===== Status Check ===== None ====== Recipies ====== None ====== Known Issues ====== None
