password gen - two different ones?

TwoProc — Fri, 25 Jan 2008 22:12:13 GMT

I'd like a good password generator for Linux. I'd like to be able to specify alpha/numerics quantities and total length, repeatability of chars (like none), etc. I'd like a command line tool, and a gui tool. Both in the same package would be nice.

Can anyone suggest one that they like?

Any suggestions appreciated!
