I hope Rocky doesn’t see this. But I’ve had enough of forgetting passwords and password reset e-mails taking hours and sometimes days to be sent. So I have downloaded and installed Password Minder by Keith Brown over at Pluralsight.
The issue came to a head when I was having a _secure_ IM conversation with one of our infrastructure guys – Derrick Buckley. Derrick was giving me about my 1000th unique username/password combination to remember and he himself wondered whether I would be able to remember.
Being an honest kinda guy, I said no – and he suggested Password Minder. So far I have about twenty passwords safely tucked away behind my super password (30–40 characters) and backups of the password file are taking place every week.
