I'm looking for a Large Word List, for a pkcrack program.
Anyone have any idea where to find one, or how to convert a dictionary formated file to a wordlist file?
find a source code copy of unix and find the spelling routine; there is a list of approximately 60K base words. the code has an function which checks prefixes, suffixes, variations, etc. I have not looked to see if spell is included with "modern" versions of unix since the spell code is early 70s --it was in V6. It was also included in BSD4.1a/4.2+. I have all of 'em for the last 25 years, in storage somewhere --and have not fired over my ancient Pertec 800/1600 open reel 9 track tape drive in years! --or I would lift one off for you. I do not know of a routine which generates "valid" prefixes, suffixes, and the like which would be useful in password cracking routines. __________________________________________________________________________ go not unto usenet for advice, for the inhabitants thereof will say: yes, and no, and maybe, and I don't know, and fuck-off.
