Password Cracking Dictionaries

[Timothy Wright <twright () ND EDU>]

What sort of password cracking dictionaries are folks on this list
using?  In particular, for ensuring the compliance of a candidate
password with complexity rules (e.g., with cracklib).  There are
certainly many sources for dictionaries - has anything been adopted as a
de facto base from which to evolve a dictionary or dictionaries for a
given institution?

Thanks,

-Tim
