2. Unzip in ~/KeePass
3. sudo chown root:root ~/KeePass; sudo chmod 0755 ~/KeePass;
4. run .. mono KeePass.exe, create database and a key file in ~/KeePass
5. mv KeePass.config.xml KeePass.config.enforced.xml
6. sudo chown root:root KeePass.config.enforced.xml (and database/key file)
7. sudo chmod 0444 KeePass.config.enforced.xml
8. Most importantly in KeePass.config.enforced.xml between <Security> change true to
<Policy><UnhidePasswords>false</UnhidePasswords></Policy> so that passwords cannot be seen.
9. When setting up password database for KeePass use only a key file.
10. Add the url along with username and password in the database.
11. In Debian/Ubuntu: apt-get install mono-runtime mono-devel
12. Install extension chromeIPass
13. Install keepasshttp as explained at https://github.com/pfn/keepasshttp/ (put KeePassHttp.plgx in ~/KeePass)
14. Follow the directions chromeIPass gives you, creating an identifier
15. Good idea to restart chrome.
16. In Chrome Settings "On Startup Continue where you left off"

You may need to make adjustments for plugins.
1. Install keepass2: sudo apt-get install keepass2
2. cd /usr/lib/keepass2; \
sudo mv KeePass.config.xml KeePass.config.enforced.xml
edit file and add between <Configuration></Configuration>
<Security>

3. Install libsecret-tools: sudo apt-get install libsecret-tools
secret-tool store --label="PositiveSpin" keepass pos (remember password)
4. run keepass2;
create new password database in ~/keepass
assign password created with secret-tool to Master password
create key file in ~/keepass
In the password datatase, add the url for YBDB, username and password (created with htpasswd)
close keepass2
sudo chown -R root:root ~/keepass
sudo chmod -R 0400 ~/keepass (change to 0600 if you want to change password, then back to 0400 when done)
5. Install chrome extension chromeIPass
6. Install keepasshttp from https://github.com/pfn/keepasshttp/ by putting KeePassHttp.plgx in /usr/lib/keepass2;
sudo chmod 0644 /usr/lib/keepass2/KeePassHttp.plgx
sudo apt-get install libmono-system-xml-linq4.0-cil libmono-system-data-datasetextensions4.0-cil \
libmono-system-runtime-serialization4.0-cil mono-mcs

8. sudo su; visudo
after: %sudo ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL
add: pos ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/keepass2 (note pos is an example user account being used for X11)
