For those of you not familiar with the CrackLib Library: CrackLib (or PHP Crack) can not cope with plaintext wordlists. You have to generate a binary version of any plaintext list first. After you have done this you get 3 files with different extensions: my_list.txt ----> my_list.pwd my_list.hwm my_list.pwi crack_opendict() must be called with the first argument describing the path and base filename of the binary wordlist, e.g. C:\....\my_list or /usr/local/... (see below) Now the bad news - how to generate the 3 files: The only way i managed to do it: o Download the CrackLib package from sourceforge (see link in php.net txt) o USE UNIX/LINUX: o run configure o run make all o run make install o run make dict (having the wordlists in the /dict directory) o look for the files in /usr/local/share/cracklib/ o copy the files in a convenient directory That's it. |
