done

I have created this shell script, it updates a specific table on a
mysql db. Now, the pwgen is a random password generator. When i run
this program, it only gets 1 variables on all of my fields on the
mysql.

How can i make $GEN to re-calculate everytime it loops? so it can get
a new random password?
