At first I made a crackable file for john: root@...tin-desktop:~# echo test:`printf secret | openssl md5` > md5crypt root@...tin-desktop:~# cat md5crypt test:5ebe2294ecd0e0f08eab7690d2a6ee69 root@...tin-desktop:~# ..then verified, that secret is present in /usr/share/john/password.lst file: root@...tin-desktop:~# grep -w secret /usr/share/john/password.lst secret root@...tin-desktop:~# ..and finally tried to crack this MD5 hash using john. However, this didn't work: root@...tin-desktop:~# john --wordlist=/usr/share/john/password.lst md5crypt Loaded 2 password hashes with no different salts (LM DES [64/64 BS MMX]) guesses: 0 time: 0:00:00:00 100% c/s: 44257 trying: SKIDOO - ZHONGGU root@...tin-desktop:~# As you can see, john detects this as a "LM DES [64/64 BS MMX]" not "MD5"(this is probably a default if nothing else matches?). So I tried with "--format" options: root@...tin-desktop:~# john --wordlist=/usr/share/john/password.lst --format=MD5 md5crypt No password hashes loaded root@...tin-desktop:~# john --wordlist=/usr/share/john/password.lst --format=raw-MD5 md5crypt No password hashes loaded root@...tin-desktop:~# As I understand, john does not detect the MD5 hash inside my md5crypt file. What might cause this? Or am I doing something wrong? regards, martin
