The best way to generate random password that I found (i didn't look too hard) is: apg -a 1 -n 1 -m 20 -x 20 This will generate random password with 20 symbols. There is also makepasswd, but it uses perl's rand function, that is probably not very secure. Also it only uses digits and letters for making passwords. -- Summary: stap-gen-server-cert doesn't work on Debian Product: systemtap Version: unspecified Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: runtime AssignedTo: systemtap at sources dot redhat dot com ReportedBy: eugen at debian dot org http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9702 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
