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. |
