By default `makepass` will output passwords from the three following classes: - Normal passwords - random strings with letters (both lower and upper case), numbers, and dashes and underscores. - Passwords with special characters - random strings generated from lower and upper case letters, numbers, and the following characters: !#$%&/()=?+-_,.;:<>[]{}|@* - Passphrases - if we find a dictionary, a series of eight random words from the dictionary, separated by dashes. The number of words can not be changed, but you do not have to use all of them. Use as mane as you want. The first character will always be alphabetic, and the last will always be alphanumeric. DESCRIPTION makepass has the following options: -h output this help-text -l length of passwords. See MAKEPASS_LENGTH below -n number of passwords. See MAKEPASS_NUMBER below -p print length of number ENVIRONMENT makepass examines the following environmental variables. MAKEPASS_LENGTH Specifies the length of passwords. Valid values are 0-255. If 0, a random value between 8 and 42 will be used for each password. -l overrides this environmental variable, and the argument NUM overrides that again. So `MAKEPASS_LENGTH=10 makepass -l 12 14` will give passwords that are 14 characters long, even though both -l and MAKEPASS_LENGTH also specifies a length. MAKEPASS_NUMBER The number of passwords to generate. This formula is used to determine how many passwords from each group should be generated: - (n) normal passwords - (n / 3 * 2 + 1) special passwords - (n / 2) passphrases Where n is 10 by default. Valid values for n are 1-255. Floating-poing math is not used, so results may vary. MAKEPASS_PRINTLEN If 1, print length of all passwords. If 0, don\'t. MAKEPASS_NORMAL String of characters from which to generate "normal" passwords. Defaults to: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789-_ MAKEPASS_SPECIAL String of characters from which to generate passwords with special characters. Defaults to the same characters as in MAKEPASS_NORMAL, plus these: !#$%&/()=?+-_,.;:<>[]{}|@* MAKEPASS_WORDLIST Specifies the dictionary we find words for passphrases in. If this is unset or empty, we try "/usr/share/dict/words". If that file does not exist, no passphrases will be provided. NOTES This scripts makes use of rand() - a perl function that returns a pseudo-random number. It is not cryptographically secure. We initially seed the random number generator with a random 32bit integer generated from /dev/random. This should provide enough randomnes to generate sufficiently secure passwords.
