I just wanted to share a cool way, or two to have secure passwords on the easy. (If you have Linux of course! Because Linux is pretty nice, Many of us can agree)
Things needed- GTKHash (Can be found in any repo) A random file sitting on your FS (ANYWHERE!)
Now, It's pretty straight forward, Just click the "open file" dialog, and hit the "Hash" button! There! Its that simple! You can use one of the many hashes the app provides as a password! :) If you want to make it EVEN MORE secure, add some punctuation in there in random spots!
If you want to keep them safe in a text file. TrueCrypt it! I'm pretty sure you know how to make a TrueCrypt volume.Save the text file in there, and BOOM! It's safe!
-ALTERNATIVE WAY, #2-
Open GTKHash, go to the "view" tab, then select "Text", enter your desired text, (password, your mothers maiden name, random letters, etc.) And hit "Hash"! Done! Easy as pie!
Now, crypts I recommend, (Remember, You are not obligated to use them, but I can't remember 20+ md5's off the top of my head :P) I recommend CRC32, and CRC32B. because they are pretty easy to remember. But if you can remember all of your passwords in an md5 hash. Go right for it!
Weeellll! That's about it for this post, So I'll see ya guys (and ladies) later :)
