- This is Crack, v3.2a+fcrypt() : A sensible password cracker for Unix.
-
- Documentation provided is in the "README" file, which I've handhacked
- down to a unutterably boring text file. The "README.ms" file in "Docs"
- generates a far prettier output using "nroff -ms", and "Docs/README.ps"
- is even prettier still. I suggest that you start br reading one of
- these files.
-
- Crack+fcrypt() works on Ultrix and SunOS, and probably on a lot of other
- things too. AIX has problems with creating a crypt compatible fcrypt().
- For a list of the current problems, see the BUGS file. At worst, just
- run with the version of 'crypt()' which comes with your system.
-
- To install: Just create a directory to keep it all in, move the shar
- files into the directory, and run them.
-
- The most patently obvious difference from the last release is that I
- have provided two versions of the driver script "Crack" - one in 'csh'
- and one in 'sh'. If the 'sh' one works out okay, I'll eventually trash
- the 'csh' version.
-
- If you have problems, let me know, so long as they're not too personal.
