Anything under seven characters can be cracked in a laughable amount of time. The password should contain at least alpha and numeric characters. You can increase the complexity of the password by using symbols and upper or lower case.
As far as formula, that would be a bad thing. There are a couple random password generators available check your favorite search engine. Enjoy, Andrew S.

Each time I am setting up a new server, I am having great difficulty to think of a good password. Any tips here would be appreciated. Thank you.
