In Windows XP I use KeePass Password Safe, however in Ubuntu I was wondering if there was a similar program I could use there as well. It turns out there is and it’s nearly identical to the Windows version, called KeePassX.
The great thing about KeePassX is that if you’re already using KeePass there is literally no learning curve whatsoever. Almost every function and keystroke is identical between one and the other. Additionally, KeePassX is available via Add/Remove in Ubuntu, so you never have to see the command line to install the program.
My only complaint about the software is that I could not locate any way to send or retrieve a database via FTP, but other than that, everything else follows suit, right down to the custom icon choices should you choose to use that.
See video below for details on how it works.
