Shell Script for "Password Management"
Hi all,
Does anyone know of a 'simple' shell script available out there to do with 'password management'?
Age is really quickly catching up so one of these days I will really need to have a password management of some sort. Unfortunately, I am not the sysadmin of the servers and I can't install any utilities of sort, I can only use whatever's available now on the server. I've found some password manager tools, like pass, gopass, titan etc but as mentioned, I can 't install it. There are some Perl and Python scripts available now I presume, but I am sure I don't have much of the modules used on those scripts.
At the moment, am using KeePass on Windows and copying/pasting stuff from Windows to *nix server that I access via RDP and PuTTY/ssh to the server.
Am just looking at something real 'basic'. one that I can 'store' my password as an encrypted file. And then, whenever I need it, I just run the same script passing a username which will then display the password in plaintext. I will have to supply a password or pass phrase or something like that when I run the script.
Anyway, hoping for some feedback, suggestion, advise on this. Maybe someone already know of a script that I can use and modify to suit for what I am wanting to do.
Thanks in advance.
