    Sorry, ich weiss, total überflüssig und eigentlich sinnlos, aber ich musste meinen Dank einfach irgendwo loswerden.

    Keepass ist für mich eines der wichtigsten Tools unter Windows gewesen und es war schon ein recht grober Einschnitt beim Umstieg auf Linux. KWallet stellt für mich nicht wirklich eine Alternative dar.

    Danke jedenfalls für die Mühe und Arbeit, die Du Dir mit der Entwicklung der GUI für Linux machst. Weiter so. Smile

    I just want to say a very big “thank you”. I used keepass for a long time on Windows until I switched to Mac and haven’t found anything even close to it. I tried about a year ago to get some interest going in a port but couldn’t get anyone behind me. I’m SO glad to see you folks have. [...]

    Hi,
    I just wanted to say that I am using Keepass on my Windows machine and that I am very happy with it. Finally, I do not have to remember all the different passwords anymore.
    I also would like to use it on my MacOSX machine, but there does not seem to be an installer and I have read that it does not run very stable?
    Please, make this great app cross platform.

    THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I was hoping this would happen.

    I use KeePass professionaly on windows, and really like it. Over time, I found myself putting all my passworrds (private & work) into KeePass, but sadly they were not accesible on my mac at home…meaning that I would occasionally have to boot my work laptop – up to 3 or 4 times.

    No more!

    A really big thank you to all the folks involved! Much appreciated.

    And donations? On the main KeePass site? Or is there a separate donation thing for KeePassX?

    Ciao,
    Neil

    Great port!! Have been using it on Windows for a while, but also use a Linux machine. Now I can access my db from both.

    Excellent.

  6. Jens - 2006-12-20

    KeePassX is what I always sought: a Password manager that runs just everywhere. My personal setup consists of a Laptop(MacOSX), a machine at work (Windows XP) and my own PC running Linux. I share the keepass-database using my subversion repository and it works like a charm!

    The only thing I am really missing is the “donate by paypal” button on your website :-) If you do not want to take the money for yourself yuo might want to take a look at Brams (vim) solution to that ( http://www.vim.org/sponsor/index.php ).

    Keep up the good work :-)

    auch von mir ein Danke für die Portierung – von Windows auf MacOS geswitched … einfach die Database.kbd importiert …klasse

  8. GuyG - 2007-01-28

    Great stuff.
    Now can access this fantastic database on my old Mac at home.
    Great work.
    I encourage anyone who has made use of Keepass to contribute something towards this project. Most likely either programming skills or money would be helpful.
    I’m a terrible programmer but did send some money with Paypal quite a while ago.

  9. r34l - 2007-01-31

    Great tool :)

    I installed it on my USB drive, so I can use it wherever i want, at work, at home, internet cafè.
    And there are no problems, because I can switch from Win, to my Linux box, keeping all my data secure

    Please if u enjoy this tool like me, consider a donation, and keep up this great work.

    Fantastic.

    thanks

    I am a “switcher” to Mac and I am glad to see that i can continue to use such a usefull program.

  12. Anonymous paranoid - 2007-04-07

    Thanks for KeepPassX. And thanks for creating the app bundle. That’s a huge timesaver. Would there ever be a plain Xlib or Xt version?

  13. Markus - 2007-07-06

    KeePass(X) is simply great!
    Running on Mac and Windows it is my favorite tool for password management.
    Thank you so much for developing this software. Keep up this great work!

    Hello,
    nice to see that devolpment is still in progress,
    using 0.2.2 for quite some time now under Gentoo.
    I’ll get the 0.2.3 from SVN and play around with it…
    Although the Screens look very nice already.
    BTW – The Link to the repository is wrong, correct is:
    SVN: https://keepassx.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/keepassx
    ViewVC: http://keepassx.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/keepassx
    Keep moving on,
    Best regards

    Great job Tarek and Team…

    Switched over from PwManager and I’ve never looked back!

  20. Sean - 2007-10-01

    Thanks for doing such excellent work. A very polished package.

  21. Nico - 2007-10-02

    Using it almost everyday on Mac Os X, great job! Looking forward to next version.

  22. Bernhard - 2007-10-26

    Hello!

    Unfortunately, KeePassX does NOT run under Leopard (Mac OS-X 10.5), because there are problems with the underlying Qt libraries.

    Is there any help in sight?

  23. David - 2007-10-27

    Same problem with KeePassX and Leopard here! :(

  24. MacMacken - 2007-10-29

    Unter http://www.macmacken.com/2007/10/25/keepassx-noch-nicht-leopard-kompatibel/#comment-829 findet man eine Lösung für das Problem, das heisst man muss im Wesentlichen die Qt/Mac Open Source Edition downloaden und installieren weiterhin viel Spass mit KeePassX!

  25. hoagy - 2007-11-10

    Great little app. I use linux mainly, and with the portable app. it means a very versatile way of keeping passwords. Thanks.

  26. Will Beeler - 2007-11-18

    Thank you for your great software. I’ve been using it for over a year now, and I’m not switching, EVER! You guys rock!

    ~Will

  27. gery - 2008-01-19

    Schliesse mich “cypher” voller Lob an, mit dem Unterschied das ich KeePass auf einem MiniMac Intel 10.4.11 und einem G4 10.3.9 laufen lasse.

    Besonderes Lob an den “Schöpfer” dieses Programms, ich erhielt sofort die richtige Antwort auf ein Problem das ich hatte.

    KeePass läuft rund und ist sehr schön und klahr gestaltet (Mac Like :-)

    vielen Dank

  28. Chris - 2008-01-25

    Linux KeePass FTW!

  29. Mark - 2008-03-23

    I used to use Keepass on Windows, upon my switch to Linux I continued to use KeepassX. I found previous versions on Linux lacking some of the features I had grown used to in the Windows version but continued to use it because it was the best application of it’s kind out there. The latest round of updates have really brought it home. Great job guys!

  30. Gregory - 2008-03-25

    Thank you very much KeePassX developers!
    When I was using Windows I looked for a tool where to keep my sensitive data safe. I then chose Keepass since it was the only one tool really cross-platform thanks to YOU KeePassX.
    I then used KeePass for a short time on Windows until I eventually finished my switch to Linux.
    I was already feeling comfortable with 0.2 version, now 0.3 version has covered the gaps with KeePass for windows and is really FANTASTIC!
    I appreciate your effort and your work very much.
    THANK YOU!!!

  31. Stefan - 2008-03-27

    Dear keepass team,

    i loved to see version 0.3.1 with the automatic database locking on inactivity feature :) great job guys!!

    greetings stefan

  32. Pento - 2008-04-01

    Great job!

  33. Andreas W. - 2008-04-11

    Wie bekomme ich die Version 0.3.1 deutsch??? Ich habe schon fast alles probiert, es funktioniert nicht. Irgendwie bin ich von der neuen Version entäuscht.

  34. Carl - 2008-04-30

    I’ve used Keepass on my Windows PC for sometime now. Having recently purchase an Asus Eee PC I went searching for a Linux version and feared that I would have to manually input or at least import the information into a different password safe program, but fortunately KeePassX has come to the rescue as it uses the same database. I can now maintain one database and use it on both my Windows and Linux systems. FANTASTIC

  35. SAL-e - 2008-05-04

    The KeePass is essential application for me. I am using the portable version from PortableApps.com because as System Administrator I move from one PC to another. For security reasons we should not re-use the same password all over, but I have to remember over 200+ passwords. At work the main OS will remain Windows, but my personal choice is Linux. I was facing real challenge how to keep my passwords organized and synchronized between Windows and Linux.

    The KeePassX is the solution right from haven! I just installed v0.3.1 on Ubuntu 8.4 and it worked including the global Auto-type feature. Perfect! :) That is the power of FOSS.

    Thank you very much.

  36. Toeknee - 2008-05-21

    Really great that I can use my password collection from Windows at work now at home on my fresh Linux installs. Weaning my personal life of Windows is now possible! THANK YOU!!!

  37. MaxS - 2008-06-02

    THANK YOU!!!
    The KeePass is the best password manager for me!

  38. mike - 2008-06-27

    Thank You for a great cross platform password manager.

  39. Duane - 2008-07-11

    Hi, I can’t begin to expression my thanks for this incredible application. I have a lot of password data, many are complex, and almost all require comments fields for additional textual information on password questions, other codes and etc. I’ve been using a couple of other password managers for a very long time. However, one went to Windows only and the other one, although very good, appears it might not have the interest of the developers as much as it once did. Downloads for it have dwindled. So, I started searching again for a new password manager that would work on several platforms, and meet all of my needs rather than a couple of text fields, and KeePassX is absolutely incredible!!! It is precisely what I needed and works in Linux and other platforms. What an incredible job you have done. And, it seems KeePassX has a lot of interest by users and is here to stay. And ALL of the features are what I was looking for!!! THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH!!! Duane

  40. Andrei - 2008-07-19

    I have been using KeePass for years.

    I use KeePass in Windows – downloaded from portableapps.com. I use KeePassX on Linux and KeePass for PPC works great on my Dell Axim.

    My passwords are with me all the time. KeePassX is fast, reliable and attractive.

    THANK YOU!!!

  41. name - 2008-07-27

    best of the best it is,

  42. t3chm@n - 2008-08-04

    I have used Keepass under windows for a long time, and this is an absolutely awesome version for the MAC. Since I use Bootcamp I can use Keepass in Windows and open the same database from the MAC side as well.

    Nothing else I have tried comes close!

  43. George - 2008-08-08

    I love this application and it always works perfectly!!! I hope it is here to stay forever. I have transferred manually long lists of passwords and other information into KeepassX and it works consistently and perfectly. And, best of all, KeepassX has a lot of interest by the developers of KeepassX and users. TERRIFIC JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  44. Chris - 2008-08-19

    Simply awesome! I have been a regular user for sometime now and KeePassX allows me to run Linux, OSX, and Windows while sharing one common password database!

    Awesome!

    Thanks!

  45. Josh - 2008-08-29

    This is great software.

    I wanted to donate but you guys don’t accept that.

  46. Josh - 2008-08-29

    NM i’m just a dope.

    I’ll donate today.

  47. Murray - 2008-10-15

    I’ve used passwordsafe on the PC and was disappointed when I moved to OS X to find no good clone. I’m now happy about that because I’ve found Keepassx!! Excellent! Thanks so much.

  48. Lonny - 2008-10-26

    Funziona perfettamente

  49. Vip - 2008-11-26

    Very cool app. Saved my bacon several times remembring my passwords.

    One thing though:
    I want to have the same password file for Mac/Win/iphone – i am using version 2 for Win and it has fields that i have input, but these won’t transfer to mac – please please please update the mac version. oh and iphone version would be amazing please.

    Thanks for all your hard work guys!

    Vip

  50. Dreamer - 2008-12-07

    Great work !

    I’m using mac version

  51. Enrico - 2008-12-20

    THANK YOU!!! I couldn’t believe my eyes when I typed “keepass linux” in google and this site came out!!! :-D Everything works flawlessly, great job!

  52. Yannis - 2008-12-24

    Your achievement is a massive community service which has and will keep benefiting an increasing number of people. A huge thank you to the development team for their very hard efforts and remarkable results. It is a truly amazing tool or outstanding quality that we all need at these current times…
    (ex-Windows & OS X user)

  53. Marco - 2008-12-26

    Hi!

    First of all: Thank you for this nice software. But there is one thing I wish to be “integreted”: a port to iPhone with the possibility to export from mac to iphone and the other way round!

  54. phojus - 2008-12-28

    Many thanks for KeePassX. Saved me a lot of hard work when switching from Windows+KeePass to Mac.

  55. Markus - 2009-02-13

    I really like KeePassX on my Mac. Is there a tool for iphone which can import the Data files?

  56. Dave - 2009-02-18

    This is definatley in my top 5 most useful apps, thanks!!

    One thing that seems to have been dropped though is the ability to sort the subgroups in a group, i use groups a lot so this would be real handy. Is this somewhere else now or has it been removed?

  57. Martin - 2009-02-20

    Super useful application.
    We have recently switched our work environment from Windows to Linux and this is the perfect application to store passwords and read them from every OS and place.

    Thanks for every developer participating to this project!

  58. AlphaMotions - 2009-03-27

    Thank you very very much. Great app. I’, using it on Linux, MacOSX and windows mobile, super! Keep up this app.! Wish people would make more apps like this.
    Greetz,
    AlphaMotions

  59. BillyB - 2009-03-27

    Thank you for your hard work! I’m using Keepassx on Ubuntu, Windows and Windows mobile. It’s great to be able to share databases across so many platforms.

  60. David C. Rankin - 2009-03-31

    Keepassx is the next best thing to sliced bread in the digital age. Where everything in today’s world seems to require a password, keeping track of the passwords in a secure manner is an imperative. I’ve used keepassx on both Linux and windows for the past year or so and truly, it rates as one of the top 10 killer apps of all time.

    Best of all, it’s open-source. Where all great software comes from.

  61. KurtM - 2009-04-29

    I just tried KeePassX. I’m not that impressed with it. I’ve used Password Agent from Moon Software for a number of years and I think it is a better program. You click one button and Password Agent will automatically enter your username and password. KeePassX requires a copy to and from the clipboard. However, KeePassX is cross platform, whereas Password Agent is Windows only, unless it runs in Linux under Wine or CrossOver Office.

  62. george - 2009-04-29

    You guys rock!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Thank you very much for this great application :)

  63. Caladan - 2009-05-21

    Thank you, I had used keepass under windows but having moved over to Linux a while ago this was one of the few application I was running with Wine, no longer needed now thanks to you, works like a charm, keep up the good work :)

  64. Anonymous - 2009-06-24

    great job!

  65. CrystalBlood - 2009-07-14

    Thanks!! I was looking for this long time ago!

  66. james - 2009-07-31

    After two days of searching and trying about 10 programs that say they work on both mac OSx and windows your is the only one that truly worked. Two others worked Universal Password Manager and Password Dragon but they made me copy my database file to the desktop or else I could not access it from the flash drive. Great coding. IT JUST WORKS.

  67. Bithead - 2009-08-15

    Did you guys pull this app right from the heavens??

    A huge applause for your team for such a masterpiece. All the money hungry companies must learn from these kind of efforts, especially M$ who have a nasty habbit of not playing well with competitors.

    It was a pain for me to maintain a worksheet for passwords, but not anymore. GOD bless you guys.

  68. Godie - 2009-08-16

    Great work,
    but pls can you make KPx load the db-file from FTP server seamlessly.

    Rgds, Godie

  69. siyavi - 2009-08-25

    I wrote an article recommending the KeePassX, that’s how much I love KeePassX. Keep up the good work!

  70. Keleo - 2009-10-08

    Thanks for this fantastic tool! Its truely spoken when I say that KeePassX is one of the top 20 software products for me. I can’t imagine how I ever managed my passwords without it. Its one of these tools that really changes your workflow in such a good way.
    Keep up the great work and the linux support!

  71. Chad Chenault - 2009-10-16

    Thanks for the great program. I use keepass on winxp and have been slowly converting to linux. I had to export my xp keepass data as a *.kdb file for it to work with keepassx.
    With this program I have been able to create complex passwords and store information safely. I recomend this program to everyone that cares about good security. My only wish is that keepassx will be compatible with the .kdbx files.
    Thanks again.

  72. Lucas - 2009-10-30

    Hello folks: Thanks for your superb app, and for all the time and effort you put on it to develop it. About other things, I noticed on the Keepass.info website that they have recently incorporated support for the YubiKey, so, I was wondering if you have any plans to do the same for the KeepassX. And, one more thing; I have try to suggest several times KeepassX at the following web address without success, it looks to me that the suckers of 1Password and MacUpdate have some sort of association, because, no matter how many times I suggest KeepassX, they never display my suggestion – Maybe you should contact MacUpdate to find out why they won’t include Keepass as other people’s suggestion:

    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/21711/1password

    KeepassX is far much better than 1Password, because Keepass(X) is Free, Open Source, it can handle USBs, and Key-files to maximize security (in addition to a Master Password) and who cares if it does not have auto-fill, because, it takes actually the same number of clicks, less one, to log into websites comparing it to 1Password – which, by the way, is not Open Source and your shouldn’t trust the security of your data to proprietary coders – because they have the back door to get to your data anytime they want to do so. Keepass is just plain Better! and it certainly Keepsurass secure :-) )

    Best regards.

  73. Tijn - 2009-11-06

    Great program! Keep up the good job.

    Only one big wish: .kdbx support ;-)

  74. Ricardo D - 2009-11-24

    Great program, switched over from WinXP about a year ago, finally got the rest of the house in Macs and we love KeepassX.

  75. caschy - 2009-12-02

    Best tool ever. Can’t live without :)

  76. wwindsor - 2010-01-02

    Hi thanks for this wonderful port. Forgive my ignorance if this has been mentioned already, but is there a plan to support keepass 2.0 .kdbx in the future? In 2010?

    Happy New Year!

  77. ama cwa - 2010-01-04

    I had a lot of trouble getting my family to use proper net banking passwords. Now all my problems are solved with just one adequate keepassX pass-phrase. You have my thanks.

  78. irm..sys.admin - 2010-02-06

    Thank you. KeepasX is the only way I can manage such big numbers of passwords for my servers, users, databases, etc…

    You can improve it by adding searching for folders, or filtering folders. I keep clients grouped by named folders and sometimes I need to find not only ftp password for website but also accompanying mysql user name/psw. Now I have to add note with websites name to each record. Also I miss clone or dublicate folder functionality.

    (sys admin – at hosting industry)

    Big thank you. You made my life easier. P.S. I’ll try to convince my boss to donate :) Thanks again.

  79. Lucas - 2010-02-10

    VersionTracker website has plase KeepassX in the wrong directory:

    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/10561914

    The correct directory for KeepassX on the VersionTracker web site should be under the Password Managers section:

    http://www.versiontracker.com/macosx/security/password

    Regards,

    Lucas.

  80. Sven - 2010-03-20

    Big Thanx for this great app! I’m using it since i moved to Mac.

    Just a tiny issue of improvement: Could you plllleeeeaaaaassseee let the cursor jump into the search field after the database was opened. This would speed up my process of getting pws a lot. And also a keyboard shortcut for focussing the search field would be very nice.

    Thank you.

  81. Daniel Suarez - 2010-03-29

    Thank you for this project, this is very important to the security. This is my main tool every day in my work, because we have very much passwords, that is imposible to learn. But Keepassx is my support.

  82. Keepass Afficiando - 2010-04-16

    I just wanted to say that KeePass is the best, and being available for Linux, Windows and Mac is just brilliant.

    I used to be very reluctant to have all my passwords in one place, but with KeePass I no longer worry, in fact just the opposite; providing the main KeePass password is very strong it makes me feel far more secure.

    I hope this little note goes a little way to saying a big thank you for all your work and effort that is put into KeePass. Thank you!!

  83. SEclient - 2010-05-29

    Hey, this is a great program that I’ve been using for years now! It’s the best, safest and easiest program I’ve found for managing my passwords. Thanks so much for making and maintaining this piece of software.

  84. babvin - 2010-07-14

    Hi keepassX Team,

    Many thanks for the tool… Simply Superb.

    My request to make compatible with KDBX format (ver 2.0)

    Best regards,

    Vinay

  85. R. Hill - 2010-07-18

    Thanks guys, KeePassX does the job for me.

    Until yesterday, my reliance on Moon Software’s Password Agent was one of the last kinks causing me to still need Windows (I didn’t want to depend on Wine just for this). I had hundred of entries in my Password Agent file.

    So I spent most of yesterday to write an XML to XML converter which allowed me to finally move all my data to KeePassX, without losing a single bit of data in the process.

    If anybody else is the same situation I was, hopefully this will work for you as well as it did for me:

  86. Anonymous - 2010-07-20

    KeePassX is a fantastic password utility. In the last two weeks I have installed and used it under OS X 10.5.8, Windows XP and 7, Ubuntu 10.04 and on iPhone. The ability to import the kdb file directly to the iPhone is especially useful. Amazing.
