Just a quick note: Until I started using ~/.ssh/config and SSH keys,
logging into the various machines I use daily was a pain.  Now, I can
just type "ssh home" to login to my box at home with X forwarding and
port forwarding so that I can graphically manage a remote database
server.

Also, I've found KeyPassX to be a great cross-platform secure password
manager.  I used to use MyPasswordSafe, and I've written a conversion
script if anyone's interested.

Finally, for 'remembering your passwords in the browser' I love XMarks

config file
