John the Ripper is a fast password cracker, currently available for many
|
|
flavors of Unix (11 are officially supported, not counting different
|
|
architectures), Windows, DOS, BeOS, and OpenVMS. Its primary purpose is to
|
|
detect weak Unix passwords. Besides several crypt(3) password hash types
|
|
most commonly found on various Unix flavors, supported out of the box are
|
|
Kerberos AFS and Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 LM hashes, plus several more with
|
|
contributed patches.
|
|
|
|
SlackBuild contain updated version of Ryan Lim's patch for john the
|
|
ripper to support MPI. MPI allows you to use multiple processors on a
|
|
single system, or a cluster of systems for cracking passwords using
|
|
john the ripper. You need in this case OpenMPI, also available from
|
|
the SlackBuilds.org repository. But the author of the program does not
|
|
recommend use any hacks for parallel processing (see in the bottom of page
|
|
http://www.openwall.com/lists/john-users/2005/08/24/4). Use it at own risk!
|
|
|
|
Slackbuild contain also jambo patch. The jumbo patch enables processing
|
|
of many password hash types and ciphers that are not supported by the
|
|
official JtR. Both patches are disabled by default.
|
|
|
|
Note this will not build in parallel, set MAKEFLAGS="-j1" if you have
|
|
problems. |
