John The Ripper (JtR) is a password cracking program.

Basic Usage

Dumb Brute Force

To brute force a password and to have John iterate through all the possible sequences:

john --incremental --stdout

This defaults to the incremental mode parameters. You can specify a different mode, say to use only integers:

john --incremental=digits --stdout
