John the Ripper credits.
|
|
|
|
John the Ripper has been developed and is maintained by Solar Designer.
|
|
|
|
I would like to thank the following people for their direct or indirect
|
|
help in making John what it is now:
|
|
|
|
* Matthew Kwan - for producing and letting everyone use his optimized
|
|
DES S-box expressions (previously found in nonstd.c and sboxes.c, now
|
|
replaced with Roman Rusakov's):
|
|
|
|
http://www.darkside.com.au/bitslice/
|
|
|
|
* Bruce Ford and Rémi Guyomarch - for producing and permitting the use
|
|
of their MMX implementation of Matthew Kwan's S-box expressions
|
|
(previously found in x86-mmx.S and x86-sse.S, with modifications, now
|
|
replaced with code based on Roman Rusakov's S-box expressions).
|
|
|
|
* Dumplinger Boy (Dango-Chu) - for producing and letting everyone use
|
|
his optimized DES S-box expressions making use of a vector conditional
|
|
select operation such as on PowerPC with AltiVec (previously found in
|
|
sboxes-s.c, now replaced with Roman Rusakov's):
|
|
|
|
http://dango.chu.jp/hiki/?Enhanced+Bitslice+DES
|
|
|
|
* Roman Rusakov - for the DES S-box expressions that current versions of
|
|
John the Ripper use, as well as for optimization hints during early
|
|
development of John the Ripper.
|
|
|
|
* Eli Biham - for the great "bitslice" paper:
|
|
|
|
http://www.cs.technion.ac.il/~biham/Reports/cs0891.ps.gz
|
|
|
|
* Lionel Cons - for making me add Kerberos AFS passwords support, for
|
|
reporting some bugs, and for many good suggestions.
|
|
|
|
* stran9er - for tracking down the section alignment problem with MMX in
|
|
the DOS and Win32 ports.
|
|
|
|
* Authors of the contributed patches ever listed on John the Ripper
|
|
homepage and/or placed into contrib/ directory on the FTP server - for
|
|
those patches which, while not included into the official John the
|
|
Ripper for various reasons, are nevertheless very helpful to many users.
|
|
|
|
* All the people who have developed freeware crypt(3) implementations -
|
|
for various tricks that I combined in my routines.
|
|
|
|
* Niels Provos and Poul-Henning Kamp - for original Blowfish-based and
|
|
MD5-based crypt(3), respectively, that my implementations are compatible
|
|
with.
|
|
|
|
* Alec Muffett - for the original wordlist rules syntax.
|
|
|
|
* The SOrCErEr - for proving the large charset tables are worth
|
|
implementing, and for introducing "-groups" in his cracker.
|
|
|
|
* Jackal - for the format of john.pot and parts of the user interface.
|
|
|
|
* Anton Ertl - for "Labels as Values" optimization that I use in
|
|
compiler.c:
|
|
|
|
http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/papers/ertl96diss.ps.gz
|
|
|
|
* The developers of Cygwin - for Cygwin (at the time called Cygnus
|
|
Developer's Kit) that I used for the Win32 port:
|
|
|
|
http://www.cygwin.com
|
|
|
|
* DJ Delorie - for DJGPP that I used for the DOS port:
|
|
|
|
http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/
|
|
|
|
* Charles W Sandmann - for CWSDPMI, the DPMI server used with DJGPP.
