How can I generate random numbers with a specific sum and a specific minimum (zero) but varying maximum? I already tried randfixedsum function but the maximum is fixed not varying.

How about first picking the maximum "thismax" randomly from whatever distribution you want, and then using randfixedsum to generate the remainder "desired_total-thismax" the remaining n-1 numbers?
