Shell Scripting - Password Generator

[@TheMouseJerry-du1md]

Brilliant! Thank you for the videos, please keep going. There are hardly any project based bash script videos on youtube and this is really great. You got me subscribed!

[@adanmussa9098]

[@jimchr4331]

Very good man ;) Keep going!

[@BobbyValenzuela]

6:30 I know I'm missing something very novice here, but I thought base64 implied a 64-character set? I'm sure I'm wrong here, but would love to learn the significance of using the value 48 as I think I haven't fully grasped it sadly... Any help from anyone would be much appreciated.

[@blog.pymastery]

All are exciting! Thanks.

For anyone who ended up with an error saying bad sequence, you can change {seq 1} to just {1},

[@sudocatsda1guy390]

My first script was basically this. Actually I did it before I even knew how to run scripts.

[@hemdeepgamit2234]

Sir please, can you explain how to make an shell script that run another script at specific date & time?

[@AjayKumar-un9gy]

just add 'cron job' to the script

[@shricorporation2424]

can you make videos on bash script colours in terminal

[@ronin2167]

I'm a bit confused at what the statement: for p in $(seq 1); is doing. What does the P and in portion do? I understand that you are using the seq 1 to just create 1 password.

[@getstart98]

I guess p represents that particular instance/sequence in the loop when it's generating 1 or 'n' number of passwords. Ex: let's say "for p in $(seq 1 5)": for p(or let's simply say password may be) in seq 1, generate random password as specified (openssl rand .....) for p in seq 2, generate random password as specified (openssl rand ....) and so on..

[@reymarckessaguirre5082]

p is to represent each item in $(seq 1 5)

:error:2406F079:random number generator:RAND_load_file:Cannot open file:../crypto/rand/randfile.c:88:File Any help?

[@zdravkojovancevic1013]

I don't know why this happened but it didn't generated any password after executing this script, something is wrong but I still don't know why, if someone could help I would appreciate it. It just leaves a blank line after executing, not showing any generated password and yeah, doesn't give me any error..sorry too long comment :)

[@zdravkojovancevic1013]

I have found a mistake haha wow :D

[@JokesGaloreYT]

Great! Just Great! Thanks man!

[@stephenkamenar]

10:38 you're very wrong about those passwords. they're extremely strong. 80bits of entropy is no joke

[@zeph199-n4x]

What does that P stand for?

[@alexfoti76]

can you give me solution to write it to file?

[@krisdouglas6536]

Hi there and thanks again. After watching this and your file encryption video Also I’ve made a script that exports the password to a file and encrypts it. I’m stuck with a part though. How can I output the password with a name for what it is ? For ex generate password for a website and an option to name the password and have that output together ?

[@florentlb4119]

yees I thought the same after watching this video, did you manage to do it?

[@shakeraljobury153]

Thank you very much 🙂

[@MrGFYne1337357]

i love you bro but still waiting for system hardening, b4 hacking, much respect

[@HackerSploit]

Hello, Apologies man, I've just been caught up with a lot. It is definitely the next series.

[@MrGFYne1337357]

i'm thinking of highlighting your vids in destination linux yt/podcast and distrotube, much live bro

[@PainDive1]

I am trying to figure out a way to write the output into a .txt file. I know how to do it in python lol

[@jigsaw2925]

Add a code after generate like so: .... > name.txt

[@cornelldavid472]

take this Last Pass !!!!

[@shishirpokhrel35]

openssl rand -base64 $PASS_LENGTH :)

[@rourodadi7524]

thanks

[@لعبشطرنجمحترف-ش4د]

good

[@warxero123]

anyone here can explain why if I increase the value of 48 to example 64 the result are two passwords, I mean "openssl rand -base64 64 | cut -c1-$PASS_LENGTH" I'm getting this response Enter length: 25 pghYuKC6nLJTeTBHaI5u0ZV4o E9kc35RZP+X53Akh/M9aww== the response show 2 values, but the iteration is "for P in $(seq 1); do" any comment about it

[@Gr33n37]

THANK YOU BRO

[@eugenemark836]

for executable make sure you have the absolute path e.g openssl -> /usr/bin/openssl

[@cinematicRecapss]

#!/bin/bash echo "write the length of the password" read len openssl rand -base64 48 | cut -c1-$len
