Which Keepass? On debian: user@host:~$ apt-cache search keepass keepass2 - Password manager keepass2-doc - Password manager - Documentation keepassx - Cross Platform Password Manager kpcli - command line interface to KeePassX password manager databases libfile-keepass-perl - interface to KeePass V1 and V2 database files I ask because I have been using keepassx for three or four years with only two databases. I keep multiple copies on different storage devices and I have had only one copy ever become corrupt, but it was the fault of the usb device. I use keepassx and kpcli with pleasure. -- qubenix GPG: B536812904D455B491DCDCDD04BE1E61A3C2E500 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
