Followed the instructions here and when I get to the bit where I enter the line in xterm to get the DES hash I get stuck.

I tried in the console in winscp but that, after entering the code, showed 'root::'. Thinking it was an error I tried this line in xterm:

Code:

echo root:$(grep -A 13 lock_code /dev/mtd1|tail -1): > /home/user/MyDocs/old_lockcode

The resulting file, when opened in Notepad, also shows 'root::' as well (thus, John the Ripper cannot 'crack' the code).

N900, running Maemo 5 version 10.2010.19-1. Hong Kong official version which I believe is the same as the Global variant.

Anyone?

Also... I can't seem to be able to use the script in the OP- it results in 'file not found' but I'm sure that the folder I chdir'd into is where a.out.gz is.

122809           (root)
guesses: 1  time: 0:00:00:03  c/s: 972168  trying: 122517 - 120832

122809 - Not my luggage combination by the way. That would be 12345

I'm using the windows version of john. I don't see any options to tell john to just use digits...guess i'll just have to wait then for a couple of minutes.

Start > Run > cmd

navigate to the folder where you have john saved:

cd C:\john

then type

john-386.exe textfilewithhash.txt

and then hit enter...still haven't cracked my password since it's going through ALL alphanumeric combos...
