(solved) Mcookie, pkg -l to generate random sequence
I am setting this thread to this bsd forum, though it may fit into bash. But as using bsd and the terminal, I would like to generate a random sequence of alphanumerical digits, such as I use to do so on linux by typing just
Code:
mcookie
this one gives me a pretty random password, but it does not on bsd 10.1.
Does someone have any idea without creating that via
Code:
tr -dc a-z1-9 < /dev/urandom
or other similar constructions even more complicated?
by typing
Code:
pkg -l
the list of commands is pretty short. Hitting twice the tab-space as root does not help either as is lists all in linux.
Any hints? Thanks in advance.
So I have been trying the following command without success, because md5sum and sha256sum or higher are not present on my bsd, for either root or user.
Code:
date | m5sum
as well with the other ones.
While typing the following longer command (I read the manual about random and urandom)
I need awk script to generate part number sequencing based on data in multiple columns like below
Input File
---------
Col A|Col B|Col C|
1|a|x|
2|b|y|
|c|z|
| |m|
| |n|
And out put should be like
1ax
1ay
1az
1am
1an
1bx

Need to use dd to generate a large file from a sample file of random data. This is because I don't have /dev/urandom.
I create a named pipe then:
dd if=mynamed.fifo do=myfile.fifo bs=1024 count=1024
but when I cat a file to the fifo that's 1024 random bytes:

as you can see there is a delimiter after c8 "::". Awk sees the rest as fields because it doesn't recognize spaces and tabs as delimiters. So i am basically looking to isolate 20030003ba13f6cc. Can anyone help?
