John the Ripper 1.7.3.1 (Development branch)
Image John the Ripper is a fast password cracker, currently available for many flavors of Unix (11 are officially supported, not counting different architectures), Win32, DOS, BeOS, and OpenVMS. Its primary purpose is to detect weak Unix passwords. It supports several crypt(3) password hash types which are most commonly found on various Unix flavors, as well as Kerberos AFS and Windows NT/2000/XP LM hashes. Several other hash types are added with contributed patches. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
This release focuses on better x86-64 support. Most notably, two Blowfish-based crypt(3) hashes may now be computed in parallel for much better performance on x86-64, and new make targets have been added for Mac OS X 10.5+ (Leopard) and recent versions of Solaris on 64-bit capable x86 processors, producing 64-bit builds that make use of the 64-bit mode extended SSE2. As a bonus, "DumbForce" and "KnownForce" external mode samples have been added to the default john.conf.Image

unafs

UNAFS(8)                                                      System Manager's Manual                                                     UNAFS(8)

NAME

       unafs - script to warn users about their weak passwords

SYNOPSIS

       unafs password-files cell-name

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents  briefly  the  unafs command, which is part of the john package.  This manual page was written for the Debian
       GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.  john, better known as John the Ripper, is a tool to  find
       weak passwords of users in a server.
       The unafs tool gets password hashes out of the binary AFS database, and produces a file usable by John.

SEE ALSO

       john(8), mailer(8), unique(8), unshadow(8).

       The programs are documented fully by John's documentation, which should be available in /usr/share/doc/john or other location, depending on
       your system.
