Fun With Passwords?

eSims asks: "Most all SysAdmins have the pleasure of picking passwords and while we know the rules for picking good passwords we also know how to have a little fun with them as well. Password choices may be inside jokes about management, comments on the company, or just torture for the users we assign them to, but often they are funny. Without giving away the company secrets what are some of your funny stories about password selection?"

Generation tool

[Plake]

We use a generation tool to create our passwords from "/usr/dict/words". It breaks passwords down to 3 word chunks (from 3 to 4 characters) with random characters between them. This makes passwords from 11 - 14 characters which is more then safe for user accounts.

When they want to change we have another tool that works based on some of those rules so users can just reset their password to password.
