Can You Provide Best Password Manager Software to Auto Populate/Type In Fields

I have a ton of different places where I have to enter my username and password. From login screens on the web to login screens with my company software to Cisco VPN software login box, etc, etc.

I have gotten so tired of having to login manually a million times each day. I would love to have some kind of password manager software that would AUTO TYPE OR POPULATE the username & password fields for me so i woudn't have to manualy enter them each time.

I have tried a few password managers in the past, but so far those I've tried have still require me to manually type in the username password. all they did was keep a databse of my username and password. I want more.

I used to have an IBM Thinkpad and it had an outstanding Password Manager that would auto type all fields. But I don't have it anymore.

I'm sure there is something out there that will allow this.

Please help!! see my different examples below. these are just a few of the many different places I have to login from.

Thanks!

For rdp connection you can store username and password (without re-typing them) with this program: mremoteNG http://www.mremoteng.org/

I will also use Keepass for some web sites; it has Auto-Type function, you only need to put the focus on username field on the browser, before choosing Auto-type from the menu of Keepass

I agree, Keepas is the best password software out there and you have a portable version
Just add a TrueCrypt storage and then u are secure two times :-)

But guys, even with Keepas you still have to manually pullup the app each time and click in the username filed and go back into the app again and click "auto-type" right? That's too much work to have to do each time you login.

I might be better off just typing in the username and password manually after doing all that.

there's got to be something out there that will allow you to just pull up the web page and then username/password fields auto fill dynamically.

this is what u can do

(with webpages you can use the built in password manager in opera, chrome, firefox, etc)

Menteabieta, I read that article. But still not sure exactly how to set this up to auto type the ID/password for me. Can you provide the specific steps for me please?

Thanks.

Ok. I figured it out. However, with RDP, I have to connect to Windows 2000 servers and I have tried mRemoteNG just few mins ago but it doesn't auto login for windows 2000 servers. Is mRemoteNG not able to auto login W2K??

Michele Segato

Very strange that mRemoteNG doesn't work for you. Did you choose the RDP protocol and inserted username and password in the property fields? Does it work dor windows 2003 servers and above, in your situation?

@ furball4, can you tell me where to go to get that plug in for Kee Pass?

And once I install it, your saying I will be able to configure it so that it "auto-populates" without having to do anything with Kee Pass? Like click in the field or click hot keys, etc?

Just to update this discussion - as much as I have loved KeePass and as flexible as it has proven to be, I recently moved to LastPass and am a total convert. It is implemented as a browser plugin with online backup of your passwords, but all that is done in a manner that, if implemented as they state, does not expose your passwords to their company. The passwords are only ever unencrypted on your local machine. It has even better auto-login capabilities out of the box than KeePass, strong management tools, and even sharing of passwords with other LastPass users. Very nifty.
