PDF files and passwords using Commandline
Jan 13th
I get lots of e-bills (utility, telephone, Internet, mobile, cable and so on) in a PDF format for my small business and I need to forward those to my accountant.

How do I remove a password from all PDFs under Ubuntu or any other Linux distribution in a batch mode?

KeePassX: Easy and Secure Password Management

Long gone are the days when people use tomboy notes or gedit files to store passwords (not true, i still see such people around me on daily basis), now they use KeePassX. Its a very nice and handy tool, best thing about it is that its Cross Platform. I have been using it since years and i never found any issues with it.
You can install it on ubuntu/debian like:
apt-get install keepassx
