Productivity : Use Keypass to keep track of your environment’s credentials,

 

Some use Excel, Others simply use text files to keep track of their passwords, but I use keepass .

It is simply a vault for your logins and passwords which you can unlock with a single password. However I use it also for auto-piloting my login procedure.

The whole idea is not to have to use a pool of passwords for all systems and also to auto-start you log-in procedure and save waring off your precious fingers in typing useless usernames and passwords.

In this article I will show how to use keepass to auto-login to:

  • WinScp
  • Toad

It is available on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iPhone.
