Hey guys,

Recently moved from Mac to Debian Linux. I am looking for a nice and powerful FLOSS password manager similar to "Keychain" on Mac OS X.

I preferably would want a CLI tool...so I could remote login using SSH and look at some passwords that I have forgotten.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Amit

Take a look at pwsafe. CLI and easy to use. There was a nice review of it
recently on Debian Package of the Day:

Kwallet may be able to work in the CLI.

Thanks for the link.

It looks like a nice GNOME app. However, it doesn't look like its been updated since 2007. Do you know any reason for that?

That actually sounds like a good solution.

Looking at aptitude it says that we might need to install the kernel modules. I am using Etch. Do you know if I still need to do this?

Thanks,

I use pwsafe, it is cli-based, but with the ability to paste
logins/passwords into X11 applications too.
