A: PWM/Pi is the platform-independend version of PWManager and it includes a replacement for the KDE libraries called microkde. It can be compiled to any platform, where Qt is available. The source code compiles without modifications on Windows, Linux Desktop and Sharp Zaurus PDA. Precompiled versions are available on www.pi-sync.net for Windows and Sharp Zaurus PDA. Latest versions and the source code cvs can be found at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/kdepimpi/ ************************************************************************* Q: Can I exchange the password files from PWM/Pi and PwManager A: The password files of PWM/Pi can not be exchanged with all versions up to 1.0.1 of PwManager. However, Michael will integrate our changes into a PwManager release 1.1, and the password files of that release will then be interchangable with PWM/Pi - - +************************************************************************* +Q: +Does Export/Import keep sync information in place +A: +Exporting data from PwManager removes all sync related information +(Meta information) from the data. Because of that, a subsequent import +results in "new" entries that will be handled as new entries when +syncing them with an existing password file. +************************************************************************* +Q: +Can PWM/Pi sync categories? +A: +No. PWM/Pi does not sync categories. It syncs all pw entries of the file +without checking for the entries categories. +A sync operation does not move modified entries from one category to another. +Only if the sync operation has to create a new pw entry, it checks for the +existance of the category and creates it if not existent. +************************************************************************* +Q: +Which crypto, hash and compress algorithm is applied to the remote file +while syncing? +A: The sync operation applies the local crypt, hash and compress algorithm +to both, the local and remote copy of the passwordfile and with thus +overwrites the settings of the remote PwManager application. |
