[Shop-talk] HP M110we printer drivers

[Mike Rambour]

  I have been using Keepass for a decade now.  Then because I started 
using Mac OSX and Windows at work, went with KeepassX  which works on 
all platforms.   I started using Strongbox on my iPhone because it reads 
Keepass databases. My database is stored on Dropbox with a unique name 
that wont make sense to anyone who gets access to my Dropbox and besides 
the DB is encrypted with both a password and a keyfile (a small file 
somwhere also on Dropbox with a odd name deep down in some 
sub-dirs.      The reason I went with Strongbox is that it has a offline 
access mode in read only so on my phone with no net access I still have 
my passwords, like when on vacation in Europe. Strongbox does not work 
on Windows however, so I keep using Keepass on Windows at work. Keepass, 
KeepassX and Strongbox all use the same database.

  Stongbox on a mac is also integrated with the web browsers so you just 
type in the strong box password and it inserts your user/pass combo in 
the browser, really handy to not have passwords stored in the browser,  
on Windows Keepass does not integrate so its one extra step but I feel 
very secure.

  I like having a password and a keyfile for security, to open the 
encrypted DB the app needs both password and the keyfile to open,  in my 
case the keyfile is a word doc file for a recipe card, so no one would 
figure it out that it is important (well there is probably a way, but 
bigger fish out there).
