The goal is to unify all of the good information found in various bits and pieces into 1 large document. This document is for people who want to learn to the how and why of password cracking. There is a lot of information being presented and you should READ IT ALL BEFORE you attempted doing anything documented here. I do my best to provide step by step instructions along with the reasons for doing it this way. (SOURCE : Jason's 'Cracking Password Techniques')
