Thanks for your reply.
Unfortunately, I can't use what you are suggesting. I am more or less looking for something 'simple' actually.
So there are several servers that I ssh to, I can copy the rsa keys to several hosts and then ssh with no password. So that's all well and good.
But there are also a Windows login, AWS login, database password login, my bank account login, just kidding, and several other 'clients' / customer that I support that I unfortunately cannot copy the rsa keys too.
So what am thinking is for each client, I create a text file with the login and password information and then I run the following
The first one is obviously an encrypt after which I delete the plain text file, and when I need to access the password information, I run the second command which is a decrypt and then copy and paste the output from the decrypt. xclip or any UNIX clip command are not available.
So it is kinda like a shell script for maintaining a text file that I encrypt and delete the text file and decrypt the encrypted file if/when I need to access the password information.
The other 'easier' option/alternative that I am hoping to have maybe is if I have the password text file as below:
Code:
mickey mouse
donald duck
bugs bunny
Then if I can encrypt and masked it like below:
Code:
mickey ******
donald ******
bugs ******
And then run an unmasked/decrypt that will toggle the ****** to show/hide the password.
At the moment, I can manage with using openssl to encrypt/decrypt. Just need some kind of menu/script to manage it maybe
I know there are other password management scripts/tools around for Linux/Unix, but unfortunately, as I am not the SysAdmin and the client possibly not approving to install such utility in the server, am left with only 'writing' my own shell script option with using one text file for each username/password Obviously, I still need to remember the one 'master' password that I used for doing the openssl -enc

script
SCRIPT(1) BSD General Commands Manual SCRIPT(1)NAME
script -- make typescript of terminal session
SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [-f] [-q] [-t] [file]
DESCRIPTION
Script makes a typescript of everything printed on your terminal. It is useful for students who need a hardcopy record of an interactive
session as proof of an assignment, as the typescript file can be printed out later with lpr(1).
If the argument file is given, script saves all dialogue in file. If no file name is given, the typescript is saved in the file typescript.
Options:
-a Append the output to file or typescript, retaining the prior contents.
-f Flush output after each write. This is nice for telecooperation: One person does `mkfifo foo; script -f foo' and another can super-
vise real-time what is being done using `cat foo'.
-q Be quiet.
-t Output timeing data to standard error. This data contains two fields, separated by a space. The first field indicates how much time
elapsed since the previous output. The second field indicates how many characters were output this time. This information can be used
to replay typescripts with realistic typing and output delays.
The script ends when the forked shell exits (a control-D to exit the Bourne shell (sh(1)), and exit, logout or control-d (if ignoreeof is not
set) for the C-shell, csh(1)).
Certain interactive commands, such as vi(1), create garbage in the typescript file. Script works best with commands that do not manipulate
the screen, the results are meant to emulate a hardcopy terminal.
ENVIRONMENT
The following environment variable is utilized by script:
SHELL If the variable SHELL exists, the shell forked by script will be that shell. If SHELL is not set, the Bourne shell is assumed. (Most
shells set this variable automatically).
SEE ALSO csh(1) (for the history mechanism), replay(1).
HISTORY
The script command appeared in 3.0BSD.
BUGS
Script places everything in the log file, including linefeeds and backspaces. This is not what the naive user expects.
