Apparently none have read the article as it's for storing password on a server where users create accounts (like voat). It's not about using it like keepass/lastpass.

I just used samba on ubuntu and restricted to only allow my host computer access. I would have tried SSH but this works nonetheless. Thanks for the info.

So it's just a matter of copy/pasting the files to and from the production server and permissions be the same.

I've edited the main post. Sorry for the confusion.

Text that I've added if you don't want to click the main post again.

Ubuntu VM installed components:

• LAMP (Apache, MySQL, PHP)
• Netbeans IDE

Windows 7 Installed components:

• VMware Workstation (where ubuntu VM is run from)
• Web browsers (Firefox, Chrome, IE)
• All other applications I run while working

I want to move Netbeans to Windows so I can easily alt+tab from the IDE to the web browser/other applications.

It doesn't have to be still Netbeans. I will try other IDEs as long as it can edit the code which is inside the Ubuntu VM/over the network.

No. Those are running on Ubuntu which is inside a VM.
