I just added another shell script to the growing library of open source code available on xentek.net. This entry is nothing special, but may prove useful to you. The script can generate a string, between 3 and 32 characters long, that you can use when setting new passwords.
The passwords won’t be the most secure in the world (doesn’t include any Uppercase Letters) but does bookend a random md5 string with some special characters to increase the complexity. You can pass in a number between 1 – 32 to control how long of a password it generates for you.
Download the random password script it from the code library.
