Description of problem:
I know "mimencode" is part of the deprecated package "metamail" but I'm using
a password generating script for random password generation on one of the
Red Hat Linux machines I administrate.

(
In those password scripts, I use the trick "head -c 6 /dev/urandom |mimencode"
to fetch a nice series of random characters, but without a tool like mimencode
I cannot do this.
)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Expected Results:  I expect some nice random characters to appear. :-)
