hash for 12

ok now i understand alot about jack the ripper i just dont have a dictionary to run the words against so can any one get me a dictionary in txt format? or can i pm some1 the hash so they can crack it?

This is a really good wordlist. It's in .gz format, but it can be unzipped with winrar or Zipgenius. Then you get a .txt file.

First off it's JOHN the ripper. Read my article on it and grab the wordlists from there.

Where do i get the username from?? Ive got and cracked the hash and jtr only gave me one word.

Quick response would be appreciated.

well you get the hash in the format username:password… look at the hash you were given and teh bit before the : is the username.
