I am trying to solve the password cracking 1.3 challenge exercise. It has been almost 3-4 days and still i am unable to crack the password. I don’t know where i’m making the mistake. Can someone help me, as i have been following the instructions given in the challenge exercise, but still no luck…
I am attaching the screenshot of the final status here, which says “Exhausted” instead of “Cracked”. So it means i still couldn’t crack helena’s password.
On http://psybrary.com is a link to another website that “inspires” them. It is this link you should follow and use cewl on, not http://psybrary.com. Your steps are good, just use the right web page for cewl.
Thank you very much for your guidance. Finally, I was able to solve the problem. Actually in the instructions given in the challenge exercise, they mentioned https://site-to-scrap, this https confused me as the webpages with https were edgarcayce.org etc, i think this was the biggest catch in this challenge exercise. Once again, thanks for your guidance and help in solving this issue.
Best Regards!
