Finding a suitable password manager in Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon)

Like most users these days I have many user accounts on various websites. Dealing with security can be quite an issue with so many passwords. A lot of accounts, say to a discussion board, are not too problematic if the credentials get compromised. For other sites, like financial or email services, compromise represents significantly more danger. It is wise not to use the same usernames and passwords on different servers for the reason that if 1 gets compromised others are put at risk. I find it’s best to use a password manager and generate passwords for various sites and keep the password file protected by a strong password or passphrase that changes regularly. I also find that it helps keep such accounts organized so I don’t lose track of them. I wanted to see if there was an application that would suit my needs using Kubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon).
