Re: Automatic Password Generator Tools on Unix Platform

Install uuencode and generate your passwords with:

head -c 10 /dev/random | uuencode -m - | tail -n 2 |
head -n 1

Changing the bytes count (-c) will result in changing
the lenght of the password... 

You can also put that line in a bash script to cut the
typing :)

Ventsi
