What is the secret to copying the Keepassx database into another computer? It has always been difficult for me, this morning it seems impossible. I see no point in making it so secure that it can't be done.

Simply copying a file would not seem to reduce its security ... I have spent an hour messing with exporting and importing the databases this morning! No matter what, it simply rejects it. I ran the "Repair Database" application and it finds nothing to repair.

"keepassx is old" I did not know that, asked dnf install keepassx and that is what I got, maybe I should have asked for keepass instead? I don't remember how I started but keepassx is what I've used for some time and just continued without looking for an alternative. It's just a tool and ideally should just work when installed. But that has not been my experience. I believe I used to use Dropbox for dns service until ViaSat insisted we should use their dns to save bandwidth and that was always a major consideration. Now they claim unlimited use, as long as you don't exceed your allowance, but their enforcement seems lax so far. I still keep an eye on usage however, I'm already over 200% of my allotment. I thought it a bit slow Sunday afternoon/evening but it has continued to work. Thanks for responding,  Bob
