See also bug #495398 which says that /root/.john is used instead of /var/lib/john. Since the other bug has been marked as wontfix (even though it seems strange for me for a package to write to ~root), it appears that the proper fix for this issue is to change RUNDIR and RESTORE in /usr/share/john/crontab from /var/lib/john to /root/.john. The important thing is that the cronjob script and the john binary are consistent. -- Bill Wohler <[email protected]> aka <[email protected]> http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
