Password generator?

[info@wurstkonverter.de]

Can anyone tell me a PW-generator, which creates PWs not crackable with
brute force?

None exist.

Like Slav answered before, there isn't. Try teaching your users (or
yourself) using "passphrases" - sentences that are actual passwords -
using all kinds of characters like ,.#! and things of that nature. The
longer those sentences/passwords are, the harder to crack (=more
time/resources) they are.

cheers,

Florian

Brute force can crack any password, given the time and resources.

There's just one other thing: computer cannot determine "crackability" of a
password better than a human.

So if you believe that your password or passphrase is strong (while being
aware of existing brute force techniques) - it probably is. My smart card is
better anyway
