Automatic Site Login

There are two ways to automatically log yourself in to sites represented by services in your database. The first is only available for Safari users on the Mac, and is the easiest.

  1. Choose "Keychain Synchronization" from the File menu.
  2. Check the services which have been properly configured with a username, password and URL.
  3. Click Synchronize.

For Windows users or non-Safari Mac users, the auto-fill is only reliable for servers which are not web sites. This includes FTP, NNTP, POP3, Hotline, Gopher, and basically any other type of server which doesn't use your web browser.

  1. Create a service with a field labeled username or login.
  2. Create another field with the type of Password.
  3. Create a final field labelled URL.
  4. Fill in the applicable information, remembering to include http://, ftp://, hotline://, irc:// and so forth in the URL.
  5. Save, and click the Go button.
  6. Repeat as necessary for all applicable services.
