The KeePass Thread

[Master Razor]

What is KeePass?
KeePass is a free, open source, light-weight and easy-to-use password manager.

Why do you need it?
Possibilities are endless here. It can be used for:

• auto-typing user and password data at login prompts
• password generator
• form auto-fill
• possibility of having unque, strong passwords on every site while having to remember only one
• storing sensitive information, not just login entries
• sync login entries between devices (tablet, phone, laptop, pc)

Installation?
It comes in both portable and installer. Can easily be put on a USB stick or memory card and use on the fly.

using it for years now with a great experience .. recommend it to any one who want to keep safe by generating a very hard password combinations without the need of memorizing it at all.

I'm trying to add an attached file to autofill.

Something like:

S:file.rsa

But it only works for text placeholders and not attachments. Any ideas?

Please elaborate what are you trying to do ? you want to pass just a path of a file or you want to pass the actual file itself ?

[Master Razor]

I have a key file attached to an entry (file.rsa). I want to use it as a placeholder within the url field as so cmd://app.exe -source {s:file.rsa}. I want to pass the actual file to the program.

[Lucius]

cmd://app.exe -source {A:file.rsa}

Try this

[Master Razor]

Thanks for that. I'm confronting myself with a new problem that I just cannot figure it out.

I have installed the keeAgent plugin and I had a rsa key added to it.
Problem is that I've moved the location of the entry containing the file and now when I try to add the key to keeAgent it gives me:

Did you attached the file first before using it with Keeagent ?
Try to use the file as external not attached and tell me if it works

[Master Razor]

It works from an external location.
Itegrating the key works, it asks for the passphrase and all is OK. However, when I open the database I get the same error as above.

Did you attached the file first before using it with Keeagent ?

No. I installed the plugin several months ago and integrated the key after I installed the plugin. This worked well for months but I changed the entry location from one folder t another and it probably screwd up something within the db.

[Lucius]

However, when I open the database I get the same error as above.

Your installation is portable version ? if so try to setup a normal version and open the database in it after setup all your plugins again and see what happens

[Master Razor]

It's not portable but I'll try to remove the plugin and reinstall it.

I tried all except uninstalling keepass. I reinstalled the plugin, changed the key (rename + resave from PUTTYGEN) and nothing.
Whatever it is, it ain't the key.

[Master Razor]

Any other ideeas? Uninstalling keepass or the plugin doesn't work.
Tried attaching a fresh generated key and still doesn't work.

[Lucius]

I will try to make a fresh install with keeagent and will give you feedback.

[Master Razor]

I fixed it.
The problem was that I didn't add the password to the entry. I forgot the passphrase is taken from the password entry.
Sorry for my stupidity and thanks for your help.

[D3TR1TUs]

Auto-type is very useful and with Keepass you don't depend on a third party like with LastPass.
Just remmeber to update your passwords if you're banned and get another account, or you'll get screwed like I did
