PassGen is a basic secure password generation package and associated cmdline tool. Generated passwords can be of arbitrary length, and conform to a few basic policies.
-
Alpha - mixed cased roman alphabet passwords
ex: fdUhcJupKPzOIKBaLfqe -
Numeric - numeric digits in range 0-9
ex: 92167663796913288031 -
AlphaNumeric - combined Alpha and Numeric policies
ex: Wll77E6bm6TA25agYu60 -
Printable - ascii characters in range 33-126 inclusive
ex: AZn#))q<(m*f42F"+&9- -
Special Characters - any of the basic policies, minus the all inclusive Printable policy -- can be augmented with specifying a string consisting of candidate "special characters". (Note that per your command line shell, you may need to suitably escape the special character string.)
ex: ]06.8!2[699/][6[61\0 -- given Numeric policy with ".[]!\/" special characters spec. -
No repeated seequences - any of the basic policies can be augmented with specifying a non-reptition of password character sequences. (Note that while some authorized domains specify this behavior, the use of non-repeated flag reduces the space of possible passwords.)
ex: 14356954843130739693 -- given Numeric policy with no repetition constraint.
Refer to the provided example cmdline tool.
