see below .
I was wondering if is at all possible to discover a password one char at a time.
<niped>
If the hash is of good cryptographic level, if someone steals the hashes he won't get an easily time finding collisions. And to avoid two users to have the same hash if they use the same password, salt bits are used (that's what Unix does).What are salt bits?
Salty ! Here they are random numbers to padded and encrypted with actual password to make brute forcing difficult ________________________________________________________________________ Delivered using the Free Personal Edition of Mailtraq (www.mailtraq.com)
