Subject:   How do I generate passwords?
Message-ID:  <XFMail.000523091219.mj@isy.liu.se>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
Each beginning of a semester I create some 50 accounts on my server.
Till now I have used a default password for every account, but I
intend to give every student a unique password from now on. Question
is: Are there any programs that help in producing passwords of any
quality?

I imagine I could chop up, say, md5-checksums into ascii chars and
remove the ones that don't fit this purpose etc. But if there already
exists a program to do this job I'd rather use it.
