Keepass and Owncloud

The original Keepass2 client allows you to use webdav as storage backend for the keepass file where all the passwords are stored. however, it seems to be a bit tricky to get https to work with keepass2 under linux (ubuntu in my case).

there are different options which one can try:

• sync via owncloud client and use the local file
• use http instead, but that's not recommended if you are accessing your owncloud through the internet
• disable ssl certificate verification in keepass2 .. better than nothing, but this still allowes man in the middle attacks. certificate verification can be disabled under Options → Advanced → File Input/Output Connections → Accept invalid SSL certificates
• import mozilla ssl certificates into mono certificate store: <code>sudo apt-get install mono-devel

sudo mozroots –import –sync –machine #if you see an error that it could not download the file, copy/paste the url into your webbrowser. it will redirect to a new url, copy/paste that url to the –url option of the command: udo mozroots –import –sync –machine –url “https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/raw-file/tip/security/nss/lib/ckfw/builtins/certdata.txt” <code>unfortunately this did not work for me but some stated it worked.. maybe a reload of some sorts is necessary after that..

• install the ca-certificates-mono package, but this seems to only be availble starting ubuntu 16.04 which i haven't been able to test yet.
