I'm not talking about any customer password I want to know in clear text, I changed the thread text to make that clear
I'm talking about different types of systems I need to authenticate on, ssh, telnet, sftp, rdp citrix, http proxy or even any web accounts for oracle, ibm, hp and so on
in different networks, different domain controllers, switches, firewalls
personalized or admin accounts
sometimes I just get them from customers and can't change them, some other accounts I create myself, but need to give them to others, so I should keep records
and I want a system to store all these passwords/accounts in a practicable but safe way, so I have access to them everywhere I am
easiest way would be an encrypted text file
but I'm interested in what other people are using for this purpose
