Hi all. I know there must be several ways of doing this but I wonder what the best solution is. I'm tired of making and looking at scripts that creates random passwords for users from a "words.txt" list. These kind of passwords are limited only to the number of strange words your fingers type into a file, for which I think it's not the most secure way of giving away new passwords. I know there are other types of password generating scripts, but I want to know from the users of this list which would be the best one.
I think that pre-made passwords (choose randomly) are dangerous, because most users DO NOT change their given password once received and hackers CAN access that words.txt file no matter what level of protection you use for that server/folder. Isn't there a function or something that would generate random passwords following given rules like: - from x to y characters long. - lower AND/OR upper case. - numbers AND characters combination. - random numbers AND characters. Which are the functions (or combination of functions) I can use to achieve this?
