Passwords

Work: Novell Network, Payroll, Databases, Web server, Time cost system, intranet, remote access.

Help!!!!! :stars:

Develop a base password and add a numeric that pertains only to the one thing.
Does not work for cards though so I leave the banking to the wife.:B

I feel your pain Wongo.

I have about 20 work passwords, plus all the personal passwords and pins.

Last week was a doozy, forgot one password to a system I really needed to access, not just one day, but three days running for three different systems!!!!!!!! :banghead:

Not sure whick company writes it but there is a program with a very ingenius name "PASSWORD KEEPER":o

I have the same login for it as windows. That wai when I forget one It can be recalled.

I keep almost all of my passwords on my palm pilot in a programme called keyring. This is especially useful for rarely used passwords like frequent flyer ones.

Try the first three letters of you wife's/ daughters/dad's etc name then add the month and year ie this month and year is 0407, then if you have to, change your password 1st of every month, or if you want to keep the same password still use the same three letters and add the month -year numbers for when you were married, but for those you would have to ask your misses I know I do:doh:

this site has heaps of computer related stuff ......and whenever I download something from there, I have never had any probs ...its a clean site ... http://www.click-now.net/downloads07.htm

tip: never keep passwords or banking info or any other personal info on your machine, hackers these days can access it remotely and then your in deep do do .....go and buy an external harddrive and do your work in that, you could make a folder with all your passwords in one place then when done, unplug it from the power and usb port, and lock it up ......simple and safe ....and can also be set up to require user access key....so you only need to remember one key:2tsup:

Try this one been using it for years.

Bit too easy as a password if we all use that ;)

Do what everyone else does when you have too many passwords to remember... write them down in your diary. :doh:

I just put a post-it under my keyboard.:cool:

G'day,

The same password and username for everything, makes it simple. :2tsup:

Except for back when I thought I'd do different p/words then I stuffed up and couln't remember them. :doh:

I keep my Novell password in my wallet and the not-so-important ones in a text file in my C drive.

Online banking comes with 3 components, a personal PIN (kept in my wallet), a password (in my mailbox) and one of those real time security ID thingy (name ??).

Novell is a pain. We need to change our password every month. And it remembers what I used 3 years ago.:doh: I don’t like using using the same password plus month number. I like to use a new one every time. Names are OK but the problem is I only have 1 wife and 2 daughters.:D

My passwords are usually woodwork related. Sad isn’t it?:B Just to name a few,

maloof, dewalt, silkyoak, danishoil, myrtle, veritas…. So if need a password to hack into my laptop you know what to do.:D

If the system allows it mix in the upper case of the numbers for month and year between a base password.
