    Gnome Keyring

    Not sure how to ask this but, what does the gnome-keyring do, and should I use it? I think it's for keeping my passwords and info protected but I don't know how to use it, and the help manual is broken. I have a lot of passwords that I use for my accounts but I usually keep them in Firefox or Opera, so I wanted to find a way to keep my passwords secure but accesible. Can I do this with Gnome Keyring?

    Thanks for your time.

    Hello and Welcome!

    I found two links for you.

    What it is: Download gnome-keyring 2.24.1 for Linux - gnome-keyring is a program that keep password and other secrets for users. - Softpedia

    How to install: GNOME Keyring Manager-2.18.0

    I've never used it, so can't really give any real pointers on it, but it looks to be a pretty nice feature.
