Don't ever change your password on a Friday, you will forget it by Monday morning.
:O
And the thing that really bugs me now, is that the help desk just resets it.
I want to know what it was! It is going to bug me all day long now.
What was it!!??

heh...too late. I had to choose one on the spot after they reset it. I wrote it down and stuck in on my monitor. Very secure. :rolleyes:

I'm guessing it has something to do with limes. Pure speculation here.

You could just post it in this thread, that way you can either look here, or ask anyone that has looked here. Just a suggestion...

FWIW, it may (should) be that the help desk couldn't tell you what the password was even if they were willing to.
Most of the time, passwords are put through a one-way hash before they're stored out. There's no way of reversing this hash, so the best they could have done was told you what the hash was. :/
do you really want them to know your password?

I know, it is just going to bug the hell out of me all day.
What the hash is? that kinda makes me giggle...I have no idea what it means though.

Surely they could get into any of my stuff if they wanted to anyways...right? My work password is never the same as any of my personal passwords and we have to update it every three months.
You'll probably remember it when you're not thinking about it. That happens to me all the time.

Every 3? Ours is every 30 days...You think you have problems remembering a password now, try changing it every 30 days. Once I finally start remembering it and not typing in my old password, I have to change it again. Then there's 6 or 7 different programs I have to have a password for (some have to be reset every 30 days, some don't have to be reset), but if I don't change them all at the same time I have to remember 6 or 7 different passwords. So every 30 days I have to go in and change all of my passwords.

Probably...it will probably come to me at some unexpected moment.
It usually has to do with something that is going on in my life at the time, and I think I can remember one word of it. Oh well, now I will never know for sure because it has been changed.

It will come to you when you're not at work, and then by the time you get to work the next day, you will have forgotten it again...

That's when I start b*tching and insisting that they use kerberos or something similar.

At last count, with accounts on database, web, and app servers for five different platforms (dev, test, training, user acceptance, production) plus e-mail, ftp accounts on various file-servers, etc. ... I'm up to 25 userids and passwords.
It be the succeth.

I use a new base word every year, then just add numbers to it. Sometimes in front, sometimes in back. And there is a weird pattern to the numbers.
And I email part of the password home, usually just the number with no other info. Then delete the email from the sent folder before I leave for home.
ChickSoonerFan

It won't let me use any password similar to the last 10 on my main password so I can't add numbers to the one I already have.
Hopefully I will remember it in the morning.

I just use muscle memory to memorize my passwords for me. I don't even consciously know many of my passwords, I just know how to type them in, if yo know what I mean.
Aim for that. :)
