实际上，一个好的解决方案是为随机数生成器提供一个线程安全且不使用锁的静态方法。

这样，同时访问web应用程序的多个用户就不会得到相同的随机字符串。

这里有3个例子: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/pfxteam/archive/2009/02/19/9434171.aspx

我会用最后一个:

public static class RandomGen3
{
    private static RNGCryptoServiceProvider _global = 
        new RNGCryptoServiceProvider();
    [ThreadStatic]
    private static Random _local;

    public static int Next()
    {
        Random inst = _local;
        if (inst == null)
        {
            byte[] buffer = new byte[4];
            _global.GetBytes(buffer);
            _local = inst = new Random(
                BitConverter.ToInt32(buffer, 0));
        }
        return inst.Next();
    }
}

然后就可以适当消去了

Random random = new Random();

只需调用RandomGen3.Next()，而您的方法可以保持静态。

结合“推送码”的答案和使用随机生成器种子的答案。我需要它来创造一系列伪可读的“单词”。

private int RandomNumber(int min, int max, int seed=0)
{
    Random random = new Random((int)DateTime.Now.Ticks + seed);
    return random.Next(min, max);
}

您正在该方法中创建Random实例，这将导致它在快速连续调用时返回相同的值。我会这样做:

private static Random random = new Random((int)DateTime.Now.Ticks);//thanks to McAden
private string RandomString(int size)
    {
        StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
        char ch;
        for (int i = 0; i < size; i++)
        {
            ch = Convert.ToChar(Convert.ToInt32(Math.Floor(26 * random.NextDouble() + 65)));                 
            builder.Append(ch);
        }

        return builder.ToString();
    }

// get 1st random string 
string Rand1 = RandomString(4);

// get 2nd random string 
string Rand2 = RandomString(4);

// creat full rand string
string docNum = Rand1 + "-" + Rand2;

(修改后的代码版本)

最好的解决方案是使用随机数生成器和base64转换

public string GenRandString(int length)
{
  byte[] randBuffer = new byte[length];
  RandomNumberGenerator.Create().GetBytes(randBuffer);
  return System.Convert.ToBase64String(randBuffer).Remove(length);
}

还有另一个版本:我在测试中使用这种方法生成随机的伪股票代码:

Random rand = new Random();
Func<char> randChar = () => (char)rand.Next(65, 91); // upper case ascii codes
Func<int,string> randStr = null;
    randStr = (x) => (x>0) ? randStr(--x)+randChar() : ""; // recursive

用法:

string str4 = randStr(4);// generates a random 4 char string
string strx = randStr(rand.next(1,5)); // random string between 1-4 chars in length

你可以重新定义randChar函数，使用一个“允许的”字符数组，而不是ascii码:

char[] allowedchars = {'A','B','C','1','2','3'};
Func<char> randChar = () => allowedchars[rand.Next(0, allowedchars.Length-1)];

这里还有一个选择:

public System.String GetRandomString(System.Int32 length)
{
    System.Byte[] seedBuffer = new System.Byte[4];
    using (var rngCryptoServiceProvider = new System.Security.Cryptography.RNGCryptoServiceProvider())
    {
        rngCryptoServiceProvider.GetBytes(seedBuffer);
        System.String chars = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789";
        System.Random random = new System.Random(System.BitConverter.ToInt32(seedBuffer, 0));
        return new System.String(Enumerable.Repeat(chars, length).Select(s => s[random.Next(s.Length)]).ToArray());
    }
}
