Hi,

I created 813950 passwords with
while true; do pwgen -N 50 >> /tmp/passwords; done

sorted them and looked for duplicates with uniq -c -d. In theory, there are
26^8=2E11 different possible passwords. But in reality, I got many duplicates:

Number of non unique passwords    Number of duplications of one password
34841                             2 times
5636                              3 times
1725                              4 times
895                               5 times
1045                              6 or more times
======
44142

105146 out of 813950 generated passwords where non-unique. This is around 13
percent or every seventh password. My statistics classes were a few years ago
but I don't feel comfortable with this numbers.

Regards, Thomas Koch
