Re: Password cracking / recovery Lotus Notes R6

Is it the .id files you're trying to crack?

It might be easier to break some of the 'internet passwords' in domino.
This is the password that will be requested for things like webmail,
pop3, nntp access and suchlike.  If you can brute-force a notes
administrator account's internet password and browse to /names.nsf,
you should be able to do whatever you like.

The other option is - login to notes with the server's .id file
(assuming you know the password for that).  I'm not aware of any tools
or scripts which crack notes/domino .id files.  In most notes-using
networks, they keep a copy of every user's .id file with a standard
password in a central location someplace.  They do that because if you
lose your .id file, even if one is recreated for you, you'll have lost
all the certificates it contained, and won't be able to access
anything encrypted for that ID.
