FWIW I've been using 1Password for my family (four people) and it has worked well, especially for sharing passwords.

The command line abilities are pretty top notch too.

Since it is a .exe, I just assumed it ran under wine. It also looks like a Windows app. I could be wrong.

Thanks!

I just checked, and  you are right, it is the KeePass.exe version, but when I run it I do not find any wine process in the ps -ef list.

Very weird,

The keepass2 is from the Ubuntu repository. I believe it is the windows version as it runs in wine, and the ui looks very windows.

There should be a keepass2 option for your OS, that is what I install and use on Kubuntu, and I know it is fully compatible with the windows keepass2.

Never mind...I found this project which converts KeePass2 files to KeePassX files. https://github.com/dvorka/keepass2-to-keepassx

Not sure I want to trust the process, as I would have no idea how to make sure "something wasn't lost in the translation."

I just tried to open my KeePass2 database with KeePassX, and got the error message - Wrong signature. 

I keep my database on Dropbox and a key file on my hard drive. When I used KeePassX to access the database on Dropbox, it did not show up in the file finder until I selected all files. The database is .kdbx. I entered the location of the database key file when prompted, and then entered my password. That is when I go the error message. 

Are these two programs compatible, or am I stuck with the Windows/wine for my existing password repository?

I looked at the import options for KeePassX, and all I see are KeePassX (xml), PWManager (pwm), or KWallwet (xml). Nothing for KeepPass2.

Thanks!

I use KeePassXC (via the snap) and KeePass2Android. On my Ubuntu Desktop I have the file saved in the directory that NextCloud syncs and then have KeePass2Android also grab it from Nextcloud. Works great.

moin moin Mark,

I sync my files manually. Last I looked KeePassX still didn't have a
viable sync option. A sync tool was probably the plugin I considered.

Missing features include a tool for syncing files, a tool for exporting
password sets and a use anywhere random stringerator.

All easy to work around for an individual, but the sync features would
help a lot of team use.

ciao,

der.hans

I forgot to add that I also use KeePass2Android, and I forget how the two
stay synchronized. But it works well.

Maybe I will download the two, KeePassX and KeePassDroid, and see if they
can read my KeePass2 database.

My only interaction with the KeePas* suite resulted in not being able to
read the database after an upgrade/update/something.

I don’t remember which it was (2, x, whatever).  The machine is at home.
I’ll have to look, but I’m hoping we’ll get some reaction and info that
maybe will point to a solution for me as well…



There is an action in the database menu to import a keepass 1 format
database. Perhaps the issue was that. I have a vague recollection of
running into that at some point.

Subject: KeePass2 versus KeePassX

Happy New Year to everyone!!

I have been using KeePass2 on my Ubuntu machine for over 10 years
(through wine), and I just discovered KeePassX as a native application. I
use Keepass2 primarily as a password backup, as I also use LastPass with
the chrome extension for my day to day password manager.

I have a couple of questions about moving from KeePass2/wine to KeePassX.

I found in one post that the differences that the database files are
binary compatible. (https://superuser.com/questio
ns/878902/whats-the-difference-between-keepass-and-keepassx). Can anyone
confirm this?

The only other difference (other that GUI related stuff) is that KeePass2
has plugins and KeePassX does not. I am not using any plugins now. Are
there any that you think are really valuable to have, and would be a reason
not to switch?

Should I switch to KeePassX? I am assuming I can get rid of wine and save
some disk space, and run a native application instead of a wine application.

Thanks!

Mark
