Ask HN: How do you share passwords around your organization?
Specifically common passwords for servers, VPN accounts, test web accounts, etc.

Overall we try not to. Make it so everyone has their own login/password so you can control access and limit liability now. The problem with shared credentials is you do not know who did what and in the end that can bite you. Also, it can become a nightmare when you need to update a password to keep things secure and finding out who needs it and who has it etc.
And almost always, when you share a password the pain of updating it becomes so great you stop and then everything becomes even less secure.
If you must do it for some reason, I'd suggest trying an app like 1password or similar and sharing the vault between computers.

You make a link to each place in Netsso.com. The link can include the login credentials. Click on it and Netsso will remember the credentials and log you in. Right-click on a link to share- securely- with other Netsso members. Netsso will soon launch a similar encryption management system for documents sent to Dropbox/ other cloud stores. Q,s to [email protected] if you wish.
I haven't researched this much but housing all your passwords with one third party scares the hell out of me.

BitTorrent Sync + One Password, but that won't scale past the founders.
I manage access and share passwords using www.bitium.com!
