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.MarkOn Jan 27, 2018 9:12 PM, "Phil Waclawski" <phil.waclawski@mesacc.edu> wrote: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.Phil WOn Sat, Jan 27, 2018 at 3:55 PM, Mark Phillips <mark@phillipsmarketing.biz> wrote: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."MarkOn Sat, Jan 27, 2018 at 3:52 PM, Mark Phillips <mark@phillipsmarketing.biz> wrote: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.

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,

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

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
