It works with a locally encrypted store, locked by a password. But is doesn't roam and I have to take backups. Well, some people store the database on the H:drive or a USB stick. H:drive requires network connection (VPN) but is backed up. USB stick is independent of network, but you can forget or loose it and no backups are taken. Furthermore USB stick might not always work on every PC. Google Sync seems to solve these issues, so I am going to try. Of course the issue remains that it has to be installed on each PC used. Thanks for the tip! We might want to declare this policy for some years waiting the holy grail of SSO. Excellent stuff, I am using RoboForm with similar functionality for some months now.
