This might be a weird question and possibly a dead end, but I heard of, when talking to so people in the Bio department, where a utility can generate a random password for the user, or superuser at a defined interval, so it is very hard for people to hack or guess as a password good for one day isn't any good the following day as a new one is in use. I've tried searching for such a thing on the web, but mostly there just web based - falsely claiming truly random generators, not quite what I'm looking for. Does anybody else understand what I mean, and if there's anything available in Linux that does such a function or is that nonsense?
Cheers,
Ben.

The Yubikey was shown off at LCA at the start of the year... It's true OTK, not daily though...
