Subject: Re: best setup to crack format nt or nt2

Another thing that might work well is to run the command "net accounts
/domain" on a command line shell on a Windows corporate environment and see
what is the current password policy for length.  Than you can refine your
cracking strategy. For example if the minimum password length is 8 you can
use --min-length=8.  Furthermore, the cracking attempts with a word list
containing variations and acronyms of the company name also tends to work
well.  A quick win is also to try a wordlist like the rockyou.txt available
on the web.
