Hello Everyone,
I am wondering how to create a Random Password of 8 characters for a user. It has to be run in a script.
Also, The user have to be asked to change his/her password the first time they login.
I tried using genPass but seems like my system doesn't support that command.
What OS are you using? It may help in giving a more 'correct' answer.
You can generate a password with any higher language...
A Perl script a co-worker wrote long ago has the following (grabs the name and adds random numbers to the end to create a password)
#!/u/bin/perl
...
... other code not shown...
...
# Pick a initial password.
