is there a "crack" module for kerberos?  after reading the stanford paper
about how kerberos tickets could be attacked offline, i've been wanting to
actually try this -- no sniffing is required -- against my own kerberos db
to look for easy to guess passwords.  probably distributed.net should run
this as a contest or something.  but is there a kit available or would i
have to be a black hat to get my hands on software like that?
