I'm sure more of them should have their max length increased in non-SIMD
builds - in fact, you've already submitted a fix for one of those:
https://github.com/magnumripper/JohnTheRipper/pull/2530
In particular, perhaps Rob's mentioned Kerberos TGS format should be one
of those, too?
In fact, even if the reported max lengths are not increased, perhaps
those 81's (3*27) are for real (for ASCII chars) in that rebuild (unlike
they are in SIMD builds, where the actual limit is 27 to 81 input bytes
depending on what Unicode chars those are, as magnum explained)?
Thanks,
