Ferret v0.0.1b4
---------------
Ferret will gather all the saved 'access information' from any
mounted volume on your Mac, and print it out in a console window.
First, it gathers information from files which exist in known
locations (preference files, etc.), then it searches the volume
catalog of each mounted volume for other important files that may
reside elsewhere on each drive (bookmarks, etc.). You can stop it
at any time by typing Command-period.
Ferret is meant to be used in conjunction with a startup disk, or
when you only have a few seconds of unmonitored access to a machine,
and you want to quickly gather all the usernames/passwords/etc..
It currently can gather information from:
- AIM
- Apple File Sharing Registry
- Carracho Bookmarks
- Carracho Server Data Files
- FreePPP
- Gerry'sICQ
- Hotline Bookmarks
- Hotline Server Data Files
- Internet Control Panel (Internet Config)
- MacSLIP
- Netscape Communicator
- OT/PPP and ARA (see below)
I plan to add these soon:
- Eudora
- ICQ
Known Bugs:
-----------
My DES decryption algorithm is incomplete so the OT/PPP and ARA
passwords are just a hex dump. They can* be pasted into their correct
places in the "Remote Access Connections" prefs file, but I'll fix
this soon enough.
Some (not many) File Sharing passwords are not decrypted properly,
so a "[?]" is printed instead.
Gathering information from the File Sharing registry does not work
across mounted AppleShare volumes.
Ferret, currently, does not work well underwater. This is because I
am unable hold my breath underwater for more than a few seconds at a
time. :P
Notes:
------
This project is actually a handful of pieces from another (much
larger) project of mine called Fink (see http://jindel.cjb.net).
This application currently uses a simple SIOUX console, and does
not yet support dragging files onto it.
I plan to release this with full source code when it is finished,
but until then, you'll just have to trust me. ;)
You can get more recent versions of this application (and my other
projects) from my webpage at http://jindel.cjb.net .
To Do:
------
Replace SIOUX with WASTE.
Add the ability to drop one or more files directly onto the Ferret
application in order to extract their data.
Add an options dialog (to auto-save to a file, turn on/off searches,
etc.) that can be brought up from within the application or by
holding down shift at launch.
Win the lottery.
