	PasswordBox for DOS - keep your passwords secure! by Mateusz Viste-3 :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Hi there! Just wanted to make a little announcement here :-) I always had troubles to keep track of all my PINs, passwords, logins, etc, and keeping them in a flat text file (like many people do) is really not a secure approach. Today, I finished the first version of a new program: PasswordBox. PasswordBox is a neat console (TUI) tool which can hold all passwords/logins and any other sensible data into an encrypted file, protected by a master password. PasswordBox is available for Linux, Windows and (obviously!) DOS. I hope it will be useful to other people, too. ;-) http://www.viste-family.net/mateusz/software/pbox/ CAUTION: This program features 128 bits AES encryption, which might be illegal in your country. // Credits to Chris Brown (a.k.a.

For this purpose I have use pgp, less pager, text editor and small batch file. -- /Buzzer () кампания ascii ribbon - против писем в html формате /\ www.asciiribbon.org - против проприетарных вложений ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!

OK, let's get hanged for it :-D BTW, Rijndael-256 would be better, OTOH Rijndael-128 should be "sufficiently safe for now" -- ~~~ wow ~~~ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!

TOP SECRET information will require use of either the 192 or 256 key lengths." 128-bit key lenght sounds secure enough to me. ;-) In fact, the AES library I'm using proposes only 128-bit, and I have no clue about extending it to 256... :-P Best regards, Mateusz Viste -- You'll find my public OpenPGP key at http://www.viste-family.net/mateusz/pub_key ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
