I use "john the ripper" to test the passwords on my machines. I created |
| 2 |
accounts for all those I wanted to test using the original passwords |
| 3 |
(all of which I know!), took a copy of the files then deleted the |
| 4 |
accounts. It took 17 days to bruteforce the root on one machine. Its |
| 5 |
now 46 days and none of the others (root or user) have cracked yet. |
| 6 |
Machine is a 677Mhz P3 coppermine running as my gateway (hence its up |
| 7 |
24/7) with john niced down to 19. |

Two questions, |
| 14 |
1) are there any good dictionaries for john that add to the standard |
| 15 |
one, and |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
2) what other "common" password crackers are good for this purpose |
| 18 |
(i.e., likely to be used by the bad guys) |
