I've been using makepasswd(1) for awhile now. Unlike pwgen, makepasswd focuses on randomness instead of on pronounceability. I haven't compared its randomness with pwgen in "totally random mode" but I just thought I'd chime in. I use this regularly to renew my password, forcing myself to remember some cryptic new one that I hope won't be broken. ;> --> Jijo -- Federico Sevilla III :: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Network Administrator :: The Leather Collection, Inc.
