I'm sure I must be missing something really obvious - but I can't see
just at the moment how crack5 manages to maintain feedback about
"uncrackable" users. This was implicit in crack4.1.
I'd be very grateful for any words of wisdom on this topic.
Many thanks

I dropped that functionality as it was causing too many problems to
people. Sorry if you miss it. I'm sure we can work something
equivalent out, using "awk" and "diff" if it's important to you...

1. uncracked passwords processing in Crack 5.0
Hi,
the previous version of Crack (v4) had a possibility of including
noncrackable passwrods in F.merged file. This meant thet if Crack has
finished and it didn't crack some passwords, they were presumed uncrackable,
at least for the specific dictionaries and rules set. Very good - next run of
Crack was warking only on new/changed passwords.
I've just installed Crack v5.0, run it about a week on my ~300 users passwd
file. After it finished and I made "make tidy" I run Crack on the actual
passwd file (some users could change their passwords meanwhile). And what had
happened? Crack started to break all passwords (except those cracked in the
previous run). As far as I didn't add any dictionary and/or rule, it makes no
sense - Crack will NOT break these passwords by any way. So why should I wait
another week instead of waiting one day for braking 3 passwords that have
been changed since last Crack run?
Does anybody have any idea how to automagically include uncrackable passwords
in the F-merged file ?
TIA, Grzesiek
