Password Mask Design

Design your mask so that passwords are recognizable, easy to remember, and pronounceable.

Coordinate the composition of your mask with the NEWPW sub-options. For example, specifying MASK=vnvn could generate the password A5I6. In this case, the mask would override the NV and NM sub-options of the NEWPW control option if they were specified.

Example: mask design

This example allows passwords CATOX, ZULUK, and BESEY to be specified or randomly generated, but does not allow H2NO3 or 6#AK@.
