I might use something like this:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
print 'uid: ', random_string(), "\n";
print 'pwd: ', random_string(), "\n";
sub random_string {
my($string) = '';
my($length) = 6;
my(@chars) = ('A' .. 'Z', 'a' .. 'z', 0 .. 9);
while (length($string) != $length) {
$string .= $chars[ rand($#chars) ];
}
return($string);
}
