Re: Password Dictionary File/ Each Entry is 2 or 3 Words Concatenated?

roberson@xxxxxxxxxxxx (Walter Roberson) (07-05-02 14:34:26):

Are there password dictionary files whose entries aren't just
single words but rather 2 or 3 words of maybe 6 letters or less
concatenated?

No, for obvious reasons.

Not so obvious reasons for me -- I created something like that about a
decade ago.

Then you created a redundant list (not dictionary) which contains no
more information than a simple list of all terms involved. The
concatenation can be done on the fly, which generally is even faster.


But I'm not clear whether it is a directory of plaintext or of hashes
that the OP was looking for.

Either it's a list of plaintext strings or it's a dictionary of
plaintext-to-hash relations. A list of hash values would be pointless,
unless there is some known relationship.
