Can you recommend a password generator?
I was hoping someone could recommend a good password generator.
Extra props to the person who can name one that gives you a mnemonic to remember it as well.
Solution 1:
pwgen generates random, meaningless but pronounceable passwords. These passwords contain either only lowercase letters, or upper and lower case mixed, or digits thrown in. Uppercase letters and digits are placed in a way that eases remembering their position when memorizing only the word. .
Install pwgen with the button below:
e.g.
sudo apt-get install pwgen
pwgen
Solution 2:
apg
APG is the Advanced Password Generator. The software is used to automatically generate new passwords for whatever use you feel like putting it to.
