Generate random password? [duplicate]

Question

How to generate a random password of fixed length in ASP.net (no GUID) ? After generating the random password, I need to email the password to the specified user.

Answer 1

In the System.Web.Security namespace you'll find a way to generate passwords:

string pw = Membership.GeneratePassword(8, 1);

You can provide the length of the password in the first parameter. The second is to indicate the minimum number of non-alphanumeric characters in the generated password.
