Rainbowcrack supports customized charsets, so you can easily create your own character set and place it in the charset.txt file. custom = [abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789] (It's useful to note that if you're cracking LANMAN hashes, the charset only needs to include uppercase alpha and not lowercase due to how LM hashes are stored...) Cain (http://www.oxid.it) can be configured to use a customized character set for brute-force attacks and might even be a little bit easier to use than John the Ripper...

Hi all, I am looking for a brute-force password cracker that can be configured based on password policies. For example, I am trying to audit a system that I know the security policy on (min/max pw length, complexity rules, etc) What I want is to only brute-force passwords that fit that policy. Obviously, min and max is not the issue, but I can not seem to find anything that will only test passwords that meet complexity requirements (lowercase alpha, uppercase alpha, number). Something that generates this into a rainbow table would be even better..... Anyone aware of such a tool? Thanks in advance, Chris __________________________________________ Yahoo!
