Obviously, this was not a sustainable solution and we needed to come up with a solution where read and write operations could be performed on the Keepass database…. This can be cumbersome but can also offer some advantages as only a limited number of user can update the database. While we were working on finding a fix for the read/write issue, we offered a temporary workaround which would consist of update and maintain the Keepass database up to date. This is why one user can see the change while another one cannot Workaround – Use the Keeweb “Fat” Client The local storage is based on per-user principle. This is kind of expected as the application is using web local storage to save changes. However, if another user open the application, the modification is not shown. The other strange thing was that after logging off and on from the application, the user could see that modification was available in the interface. After updating an entry, the user tried to saved the configuration and an HTTP 401 error was shown A customer came back to us mentioning that the current configuration didn’t allow to save changes in the database when accessing the software on the IIS Web server. The advantage of such configuration is that the password management solution is centrally available and managed. With our current setup, read only access is granted to multiple users through a web interface. This is why we are demonstrating how to host the Keeweb software solution on IIS Microsoft Web Server. A lot of our customers are running IT Infrastructure using Microsoft Software solution. However, the software could also be used in a corporate environment as it seems possible to host the Keeweb software on a web server. Keeweb software is a modern password software solution that can be a perfect and easy to use solution for personal user. In this part, we will try to tweak our configuration in order to allow users to update, change and save changes in the database
However, we have noticed that with the proposed configuration so far, users can indeed have a read access to the information but the solution will not allow “authorized users” to update and modify entries in the Keepass database.
HowTo – Host your own Keepass on Windows IIS using Keeweb software – Part II.HowTo – Host your own Keepass on Windows IIS using Keeweb software – Part I.You can find information about the setup in the following posts We have been able to grant users access the Keeweb solution through a simple web browser and access the information stored in the “ Keepass” database. In our previous posts, we have looked into how to install and configure Keeweb software solution on premises and hosted on IIS Microsoft Web Server. In this post, we are still looking into the Keeweb Software hosted on-premises on an IIS Microsoft web server.
