pswrdgen

Every Systems and Network Admin needs a good random password generator. pswrdgen is a semantic password generator that uses WordNet 2.1 for Windows and 3.0 for UNIX-like systems, random capitalization, and character swapping. Passwords should not be so difficult that you can not remember them. pswrdgen is a 0.2.x Python project. Generate random passwords on the fly.

Features:

Uses custom words or phrase lists
Random inserts of special or any characters
Supports optional character swapping / substitutions
Define character lengths to be returned
Define number of random capital letters to assign

pswrdgeniron is a Microsoft Windows(c) GUI that runs on IronPython. pswrdgeniron has been released. IronPython has limited support for Python25 and may produce errors. However, the pswrdgen.py module will still run in CLR for Python25.
