Hi
Finally I got it. Two (almost) perfect filters. Almost because they are
made from two awk commands and one has grep in it also. First will print
only once every substring that start with capital letter. First awk
ignores 'I' when searching for next substring, so second awk will repeat
all substrings that start with 'I'.
And this is that first filter:
env LC_COLLATE=C awk '{line=$1;while(match(line,/[A-Z][a-zI]+/)>0){print
substr(line,RSTART,RLENGTH);line=substr(line,RLENGTH+1);}}'|awk
'{line=$1;print
line;while(match(line,"I")>0){if(RSTART>1){line=substr(line,RSTART);print line;}else
line=substr(line,2);}}'
Second filter is almost like that from previous e-mails but it will not
stop after 12 letters. It consists first awk from previous filter but
second awk comes from previous e-mail (with grep).
This is second filter:
env LC_COLLATE=C awk '{line=$1;while(match(line,/[A-Z][a-zI]+/)>0){print
substr(line,RSTART,RLENGTH);line=substr(line,RLENGTH+1);}}'|awk
'{for(i=1;i<=length($1);i++){for(j=i+4;j<=length($1);j++){print
substr($1,i,j-i+1);}}}'|grep '^[A-Z]'
You can use unique command from JtR to get rid of repeated passwords.
I think that passwords from first filter (after unique) can be good as
training sequence for Markov model (but I'm not sure).
Best Regards
