On my Windows machine I use KeePass which offers a number of features missing from KeePassX, I also sync the database between several machines, including Android units where I use keepass2android. Database compatibility is thus required. Are you aware that KeePass 2 works under Linux, with mono? There are also ports for Android, but I've never tried them. You may have reasons to prefer KeePassX over KeePass 2, though. I for one use keepassx. My password database is synchronized between variety of systems, and I can view/edit it on: CentOS, FreeBSD, MS Windows, Android (and should be able on any derivatives of those). I didn't try iOS as currently I don't have a need in that. Incidentally, does anybody know if there is any necessity in keepassx to be patched? Did I read the original post correctly: there is no activity on the development site for long time? Should there be any? (As, I would say for comparison: cvs is so established software that there is no development to expect, only if there are any security holes found those need to be patched). Any insight on KeePassX anybody? Valeri hello using keepassx probably for 10 years or so across linux,win,mac,ios in late 2015 there was a security issue found and folks @ keepassx.org patched it fairly quickly and patch propagated up to epel quickly as well ... passwd manager {non-cloud ones} , in my opinion, is a "static" concept ... unless no issues with the underlying frameworks, what's there to patch ...

[CentOS] delay in establishing network connectivity
hello, centos 7 If the system (wired static IP#) is powered down and stayed powered down for some period: let say 48 hours or so when it is rebooted again it can not establish a network connectivity for some time: 7 to 15 minutes and then everything network wise is fine... I am unable to spot any errors in various system logs. If you think this is on the OS/system side where do you think I should look to hunt down some parameter or settings that maybe causing this? thank you, F- ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
[CentOS] system encryption question
Hello, Centos 7.x Let say a clean-install of Centos 7.x is being performed on a box simply with two partitions / and /boot ... and that there is no extra complexity like lvm , raid ,etc,etc ... Centos 7.x process allows / to be encrypted with pass phrase... How can a key, residing on a usb flash drive, to be added to the encryption of / ? So the system needs both manual input of pass phrase as well as presence of usb flash drive to come up after getting rebooted.
