[John The Ripper]

I was using John the Ripper 1.7.8 (stable, Unix - sources, tar.gz, 830 KB), I'll try the Jumbo 6 one

I installed jumbo-6, i kept getting an error when compiling the source, and im still getting the same errors with 1.7.8

[John The Ripper]

do you think it would be something with my install or JTR?

seems it has something to do with the format option, if i dont have it it'll run, but take forever. but as soon as i put -format:MD5 or -format:raw-MD5 i get Unknown ciphertext format name requested error. and if i have any other option i get the initial error.

Did you use the line i used when doing brute force?

[John The Ripper]

That works too

You got brute force method to work?

[John The Ripper]

It worked here, im using john with the jumbo patch

[root@arcsys john]# ./john -format:raw-md5 -wordlist:password.lst hak5 
Loaded 1 password hash (Raw MD5 [raw-md5 64x1])
hello            (User)

That's with a wordlist, im trying to do a brute force method. Good to know wordlist method works though

[John The Ripper]

I have tried that, but it says it finds two passwords and I assume it'll try all hashes, thus taking longer.

sample of pwd.txt:

User:5d41402abc4b2a76b9719d911017c592

Also tried without a capital "U"

[John The Ripper]

Yeah I've tried both, I honestly have no idea whats going on, also I might have mentioned, but I'm on linux

[John The Ripper]

strange, those don't work either

[John The Ripper]

I keep getting the error

No password hashes loaded (see FAQ)

when entering this line in BT5

./john --format=MD5 pwd.txt

When I try using "raw-MD5" as the format I get this error

Unknown ciphertext format name requested

I've tried following the FAQ answer on the JTR sire, but I hasn't worked. Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Archey
