#1) You will REALLY want to check your local laws, you may have just committed from a class B misdemeanor to a class C felony. Here is a link for states in the US: http://www.irongeek.com/i.php?page=computerlaws/state-hacking-laws #2) It is almost always simpler to get the user to reset their password #3) A tcp dump will not give you all the info you need to crack a PW depending on the encryption method in use. To summarize: Don't crack user's passwords without the backing of a bunch of high paid lawyers and metric ton of signed notarized paperwork saying that the parties involved have given you specific permission to do so.

Over to a RADIUS server with and LDAP backend. I have used JTR to crack most of the passwords but I still have some left over that JTR cant crack. I was thinking of trying to run a packet capture to get the remaining usernames and passwords. What would be the best way to do this? Run RADIUS in debug mode Radius -X? Or try to use tcpdump and pick it up that way or is it even possible to do? I have been trolling the internet for a few days and have not come up with a good way to do it. I setup tcpdump to dump to a file (tcpdump -i eth0 -n -s0 port radius -w rad-capture.lpc) , but when I check it out with wireshark I am unable to see the password (just the username). Am I going about this the wrong way? Thanks, Chris
