Subject: [openwall-announce] JtR 1.7.3.4 packages for Solaris

Hi,

Steven M. Christensen of Sunfreeware has contributed John the Ripper
1.7.3.4 packages for many versions of Solaris, both SPARC and x86,
including both 32-bit and 64-bit builds.  These are now linked from the
contributed resources list on the John the Ripper homepage:

http://www.openwall.com/john/#contrib

Currently, the link is to the FTP contrib/solaris/ directory, which is
where I mirrored the Sunfreeware packages to.

Please note that for optimal performance on modern hardware you
absolutely need to use 64-bit builds of John the Ripper.  Of the
Sunfreeware packages, these are currently available for
SPARC/Solaris 8-10 and x86/Solaris 10.  32-bit builds are available for
older versions of Solaris as well (down to Solaris 2.5 on SPARC).
