the really random password generator (Powershell)

ok,

 

Here is a powershell script I wrote awhile back. thought Id post it.  its a really random password generator:

 

$pwdlength = [int]
$pwdlength = Read-Host "please provide desired password length"
$bytes = [byte[]][byte]1
$pwd = [string]""
$rng = New-Object System.Security.Cryptography.RNGCryptoServiceProvider
for($i=1;$i -le $pwdlength;$i++)
{
 $rng.getbytes($bytes)
 $rnd = $bytes[0] -as [int]
 $int = ($rnd % 74) + 48
 $chr = $int -as [char]
 $pwd = $pwd + $chr
}
write $pwd

 

 

enjoy.  

 

 

maybe later, I will modify it to control special characters. or if someone wants to figure it out, I will repost the code.
