What does the password look like - is it just a stream of random characters, or does it also support Diceware/passphrases? When needing to login at the console of a computer where we need to manually type out the characters, typing in a random stream of characters is much more difficult than typing out a Diceware/passphrase password. Thanks.

    Can you provide some examples of passphrases - are they common passphrases, or more like a Diceware password where they are random words put together? However I'd still like to hear from the MS team as to what the new LAPS product offers, and whether there is any planned support for Diceware passwords.
