Ubuntu Security :: Migrating From Pwman3 To Keepassx?
I'm using pwman3 for both personal and work related passwords. I have a few dozens of passwords in these databases (well over a hundred).
I'm trying to migrate to KeePass for multiple reasons (pwman3 seems to not work any more and is not maintained, keepass has android and nokia database reader clients) but am looking for a way to do this on a Ubuntu desktop.
I manage to export the data from pwman3 into an XML file in pwman3's format but didn't find an easy way to convert it to something that KeePassX can read.
The closest I found is a Ruby script to convert from Revelation XML to KeePassX, but it's written in Ruby and trying to build on it to convert the pwman3 file is going slow.

Ubuntu Security :: KeePassX Files Easily Readable With Text Editor
I have noticed and this now worries me, if I export a KeePassX xml file then open it with a text editor I can see all my �private� details.Just tested it on my old desktop with Slitaz and open the exported file with leafpad text editor and I can see my details just the same.Previously I used RoboForm and when viewing an exported file in the same way you could not make out any of my details. Is KeePassX designed this way or have I not used KeePassX correctly.I have posted this on KeePassX forum and emailed them direct with no response so far.Ubuntu 11.04.

Fedora :: Install KeePassX From Source In 14?
KeePassX is a fork of KeePass; the outstanding open source application for securely storing passwords. I use it for all my accounts and passwords for all my machines and customers. I ran into quite a bit of trouble trying to build it from source as it requires the Qt and Xorg headers to compile. The following are the steps to build and install keepassx from source on Fedora 14 Step1: Install dependencies Code: yum -y install gcc gcc-c++ qt-devel qt-config libXtst-devel Step 2: Fetch source code Code: wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/keepassx/keepassx-0.4.3.tar.gz Step 3: Unpack Source [Code]....

Ubuntu :: Migrating From NTFS To EXT?
I recently converted from MS 2003 to Ubuntu 10.04.1 and i wish to change the filesystem of all my data disks from NTFS to EXT but i have run into a problem. When i delete the old nfts partition and create an EXT4 partition, i can see that on the newly created partiton the used space is about 20gb. I used gparted for this. I have read that EXT reserves some space for root, but since all the disks i wan't to convert is only used for data and not OS, i see no need for the reserved space. I found some commands to turn of the root space but that did not work so i changed to resiserfs but that very slow, unstable and under limited development.

Ubuntu :: Migrating All FS To New Storage?
I'm in the process of duplicating all the data from my existing filesystems to a new storage solution. I know it is not recommended to do so but this will be a *lot* faster then having to reinstall and reconfiguring the system from scratch...I've synchronized the filesystems using rsync, used the following command line for that: Code: rsync --recursive --acls --xattrs --delete --force --one-file-system --links --perms --owner --group --stats --specials --devices --human-readable / /mnt/sde1 rsync --recursive --acls --xattrs --delete --force --one-file-system --links --perms --owner --group --stats --specials --devices --[code].... To make sure all data is mirrored properly, the next step is to boot into a live system and rerun rsync to copy any previously locked/altered files to the new storage. After moving this, I know I have to edit /etc/fstab on the new storage to make it match the proper UID for the drives. I also have to update grub and install grub into MBR of the new storage.

Ubuntu Installation :: Migrating 10.10 To New Local HDD
I have 3 SATA hard drives, one 500GB NTFS with Windows, one 320GB With Linux (one partition)and one newly purchased 1TB. The 500GB has Windows, which I use to LAN and do graphic stuff while I set up Wine. Its got 1GB free space. The 320 I found in my garage, and is on it last leg, often not showing as boot or displaying as "Bzbzbzbzbzbzbzbzbzb bzbzbzbzb" (No lies). As I was low on space already, I decided to by a 1TB, move Ubuntu across and go from there. How would I copy my system from one HDD to the other, and also add a 500GB NTFS partition. What is the ideal way to set up the partitions, and how big should my swap be? I looked for partitioning guides but they're all really outdated (one suggested a whole 128mb swap).

Ubuntu Servers :: Migrating A Site From One VPS To Another
I'm migrating a site from one VPS to another, and I'm having trouble understanding what I need to do with DNS. I haven't even gotten to the nitty-gritty of it: I don't understand it at a very high level. My host sent me this email explaining what I need to do, and I don't even know what questions to ask. Quote: Your registrar has MyHost's nameservers listed for your domain name. All DNS-related info for mysite.com and everything inside that zone is defined in your zone file which is currently on your VPS "myserver1" and is being rsynced to [our] servers. I'm suggesting that if you don't want to spend any of your migration time setting up a DNS server then you may wish to just make the changes in that file, since that is the method that is currently working. I've come up with two possible interpretations of this situation, and perhaps neither is correct.I need to set my new VPS to be its own nameserver, and have my registrar point mysite.com to my VPS. I need to set up a DNS server to somehow interact with MyHost's nameservers (something about a zone file). Do either/both of these sound plausible? I thought DNS made a server into a nameserver, is that not right?

Ubuntu Servers :: Loosing Uid And Gid Migrating From CentOs To 11.04?
I'm migrating a server form CentOs to Ubuntu 11.04. I migrated the users, moving the config files and gaining the access prompt for all the users just when I modified adduser.conf and login.defs, changing valid uid and gid to start from 500 instead of 1000. When I try to copy the files from old server to the new one, either with rsync or cp -br, the system set to 0 uid and gid. If I explore the mount point, connected with sshfs, I can see the correct configuration, either as names or as numeric data.

Ubuntu :: Migrating Home Folder To Another Distro
I am currently Running Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala on my laptop, i am considering a change and want to move to Fedora 12 for a while(ill be back, i promise). Will i be able to migrate most of my settings over to Fedora 12 without trouble? What will be compatible and what wont?Also, for anyone running fedora already how does RPM package manager compare to debian's advanced packaging tool? I have heard, in older versions at least, dependencies were a headache, is this still the case?

Ubuntu Installation :: Migrating From 32bit To 64bit?
Ive been using Ubuntu 32bit on my work Dell E6400 for nearly a year now with no problems. It is capable of running Ubuntu 64bit and Ive tried out the live CD which seems ok. I have a spare 40GB HDD and a USB caddy so Id like to install Ubuntu 64bit onto that and start working with that as a trial. Once im happy I can get all the usual things I need for my work (like vpnc) working then I'll wipe the main internal HDD and install Ubuntu 64bit. Apart from backing up my home directory, id like to backup a list of my installed packages as a list of reference so I know what to add into my new install. Is there a "apt" command to do this and list the packages in a way where if I install those packages, I'll not hit any dependancy problems by installing one before another?

General :: Migrating From SCSI To SAS?
I have a Linux system running on an older Sun V20z. The drives are mirrored in a software RAID1. The motherboard has interfaces for only IDE and SCSI. The system is old and is no longer able to handle the load we're putting on it. I also have a much newer Sun X4100. This system is presently unused and has a pair of SAS drives in it. The new server only has SAS and SATA connections on the motherboard, though. I'm trying to think of the best way to clone the V20z over the X4100. I don't mind breaking the mirror knowing I can re-establish it later. I prefer not to do a fresh OS install followed by a tape restore. I would much rather break the mirror and clone one of the SCSI drives the SAS drive. I do have a USB to SATA adaptor for migrating external drives. Anyone know if this will work with a SAS drive? Any pointers on the best way to migrate this? I'm thinking even if the cloning is successful, I'm going to have to much with GRUB to get it to boot from the SAS drive?

Ubuntu :: Migrating Firefox / Thunderbird Profiles From Windows
I am trying to do as the title states, I am however having problems. I have tried deleting the profile and profile.ini in kubuntu and copying over the windows profile to home/user/.mozilla/firefox for example with firefox, this didn't work. I tried copying it there with the existing profile and changing the path of the ini file, to the windows profile name, this didn't work either. The only thing that I can think is that I am using 64 bit windows and 32 bit kubuntu.I have tried using firefox sync, this didn't work either.

Ubuntu Installation :: Migrating Wubi Install To Another Computer?
I've been using a wubi install of Ubuntu 10.10 for the past few months on my girlfriend's laptop, which has less hardware issues than my more recent laptop. Now that I'm a little more versed in Ubuntu, I'd like to transfer my Wubi install onto an actual partition on my laptop drive for a traditional dual boot. Is this possible, and if anyone's done this before, would you be able to spare a few minutes and outline the process? I wouldn't know where to start and how to do things since I'm dealing more or less with a file system acting like a partition than an actual one. I found the steps of migrating a Wubi install to partion via the Wubi Guide, but it seems those are steps for migrating a wubi install to a new partition on the same computer.

Ubuntu :: Migrating Virtual Guest To Native Host?
Migrating Virtual Guest to Native Host I have been using ubuntu server and desktop on virtual box for a while now. I have come to enjoy it more than being in Windows. I would like to install it natively. I am wondering. is there any way I can take my virtual machine and apply what I have done there to a new ubuntu install? I have a ntfs hard disk, will ubuntu resize that for me at install? Any good apps for backing up all my my firefox data and then applying that to my firefox in ubuntu? I need to keep windows for some stuff for work, and for some games I like.

General :: Best Way To Sync IPod After Migrating
Migrated my wife to Linux when her old computer broke. She has an old iPod (one of the first ones to show video) that has music and playlists on there. I know how to sync podcasts to my iPod shuffle with gPodder and GTKpod. But how would I sync up files with her iPod? Also, what program would I use to automatically sync the iPod with any music dropped into her Music folder? This should be as painless as using iTunes or she won't do it.

General :: Migrating From Windows To OpenSuSe
I'm running Windows 7 (on my Acer Extensa 7630EZ) at the moment but I realized that I'm using mostly Linux programs (including the Linux shell through Cygwin) so I'm considering migrating to Linux (probably OpenSuse?). While this would certainly make my life easier, I'm also used to a few things on Windows I don't want to give up: Drivers. I have a Canon PIXMA MP970 network printer and scanner the driver whereof has a GUI on Windows. I bet that even if I ever manage to get the printer to work on Linux, the GUI will be missing, so I will not have access to any of the options. (For me, this is a real reason for sticking to Windows, unfortunately.) - Windows Media Player. Although it's not as universal as other media players (VLC), I got used to it because of its well-organized media library and the ability to include a SMB server in it or use a network media library. - Adobe CS5. I don't know if it works with WINE, but I hope so.

Slackware :: Migrating To KDE 4.5.5 - Customized Settings
I am migrating to KDE4. When Current goes official I plan to install and give KDE4 a serious run. Because I am running 12.2 I will forego the upgrade path and install fresh in separate partitions. I haven't performed a fresh install since first installing Slackware 10.1. Likely I'll go 64-bit as my system is a dual core AMD with 4GB of RAM. Is there a list somewhere of 32-bit apps that have no 64-bit versions? Through the years I have many system tweaks and customized settings, but I'll be able to migrate and resurrect those readily. Mostly I am concerned with the desktop migration. Any punch list of warnings and "gotchas" are welcomed. Any links focusing on migrating at such a "late" stage in the KDE4 cycle. I don't want to build the desktop completely from scratch. A fresh install reduces cruft and clutter that might have accumulated through the years, but also means more work configuring the desktop and apps. Fortunately, I long ago housed my user and data file directories on separate partitions and don't have to worry about that. Therefore during the transition I will be dual booting but using the same user accounts. All user accounts currently have $HOME/.kde profile directories that I do not want clobbered by KDE4. Should I rename that directory now and change a handful of KDE environment variables in 12.2 before working with KDE4, such as $KDEHOME and $KDE_CONFIG_DIR? New user account names would be one option, but my primary user account has too many non-KDE settings to migrate. In that spirit, would somebody post the default Slackware KDE related environment variables so I can compare to those in KDE3? I am browsing the forum and web for various elements I should know or be forewarned, but many of the threads are old and I suspect no longer apply to KDE 4.5.5. I would like to migrate as many KDE 3.5.10 settings as possible, such as KMail, Akregator, Kate, Konsole, KMix, K3B, Kaffeine, Amarok, Digikam, etc. I realize there might be a point of diminishing returns and reconfiguring from scratch might be less problematic. Will both KDE4 and KDE3 be able to use the same KMail files? Or during the transition should I restrict my mail checks to KDE3? If possible I would like to disable Nepomuk and Strigi before starting my first session in KDE4. I don't want to disable them after starting the first session as then profile files are automatically created. Hopefully nothing more than editing some default configuration files (/usr/share/autostart? Don't install those packages?). I have no need for or interest in Nepomuk (social-semantic desktop). I don't think I have any use for Strigi, which if I understand correctly, focuses on indexing meta data rather than just finding files. As far as I can tell because of PIM apps, disabling Akonadi is futile, so I won't try.
