How to generate a VNC password?
vnc
Solution
From here.
#!/bin/perl
use Crypt::CBC;
my $key = pack("C8", 23, 82, 107, 6, 35, 78, 88, 7);
$cipher = Crypt::CBC->new({
'key'=>$key, 'cipher'=>'DES', 'prepend_iv'=>0, 'regenerate_key'=>0
});
$ciphertext = $cipher->encrypt("This data is hush hush");
$plaintext = $cipher->decrypt($ciphertext);
print "Encrypted: $ciphertext\n";
print "Decrypted: $plaintext\n";
Problem
Hi need to generate a vnc password using any script (php preferably but any perl will do). Problem is that 'vncpasswd' needs interactive user action (prompting for password and password verification). Is there a way to generate it without prompting ?
