UFC is created by Michael Glad . It's a GNU project covered by the GNU Library General Public License. See ufc-crypt/COPYING for more info. The Original Version is copyright Alec David Edward Muffett, ported to Amiga by Heikki Linnakangas aka Mr. Studd. You can get the original version from most big ftp sites, e.g ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/Admin/crack_41.tgz and big BBS' carrying UNIX stuff. Thanks Alec for permission to release this modified version! Please read LICENSE before installing. 1. Differences from the Original Version This Amiga port differs a bit from the original version. You can get the original version e.g. at ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/Admin/crack_41.tgz The biggest changes are: * background mode is disabled, Crack will always run in foreground. That shouldn't cause any problems on the Amiga, just open a new shell window. * compression is not directly supported. I'll probably add it in the next release. * automatic compiling of the binaries not supported. That would be a bit pointless on Amiga, since the binaries are included, and this version will hardly be used on any other platform. * mailing to Cracked users is not yet done. Maybe in the next version. The following little scripts are not yet done, because I didn't find much use for them. Perhaps in the next version. * shadmrg, converts shadow passwords to normal ones, that can be Cracked * saltcount, count the number of individual salts in do_join format * guess2fbk, generates a 'feedback' file on stdout from output format data * clean, deletes some output and feedback files etc. You can find md5 checksums of all the files in MD5-Readme. PGP public keys for me (Heikki Linnakangas, the Amiga port) and Alec Muffet (the original version). If you have an Amiga specific problem, mail me. If you have a general problem, mail Alec. If you're not sure, mail me, and I'll forward it to Alec if I can't solve it. 2. Requirements * ixemul.library, see Aminet To compile: * GNU C Compiler, see Aminet 3. Installation Just run it. You can specify CRACKHOME if you want, but that's not necessary. Please note that it's "CRACKHOME", and not "CRACK_HOME", since Amiga seems to have a little complex with the original way. This applies to all the other environment variables also, just remove the "_". 4. Usage Crack should now be ready to use. See original documents for more usage info. Generic dir contains the speed comparison programs, so you don't need to compile them yourself. Speedcrypt won't work if your ixemul.library doesn't support encryption. If that's the case, a requester will pop up about 50 times when you try to run speedcrypt. 5. Compiling Crack-pwc is a piece of cake to compile, but you can't use the scripts included, because they don't work :). Also the makefile can have some problems in some lines using rm etc. Cd Sources, and type "make crack-pwc.ufc" for the UFC version or "make crack-pwc.fcrypt" for the fcrypt version. Then copy crack-pwc to generic. To compile the UFC version, you'll have to compile UFC first. Cd to ufc-crypt, and "make". The sources for the script replacements can be found in the Sources/Amiga dir. UFC library compiles without problems. Just "make" it.
