- Yes, I am running SCO Xenix386 v2.3.4 GT op/sys, which is not the most
- important factor: I also have the SCO Xenix386 v2.3.1b dev/sys on which I
- compiled it. The compiler may be more important that the op/sys, because
- I've run the "crack" program on password files I've gotten from a number
- of different systems.
-
- The majority of "cracked" passwords I've found were where users used their
- own name, a name of a spouse, significant other, child, sibling, friend or
- favotite "star" as a password. It's a neat program.
