Ncrack 0.3ALPHA release

[ithilgore <ithilgore.ryu.l () gmail com>]

Hello nmap-dev people.

The post-SoC Ncrack 0.3ALPHA release is finally ready! This summer brings
you new cracking modules for two of the most ubiquitous and famous
protocols out there:

* the SMB module can crack all Microsoft CIFS/SMB services as well as
  Unix-based Samba servers.

* the RDP module can crack all Windows RDP servers from XP and above.

A source code tarball, Windows setup executable, and Mac OS X dmg
installer are all available from the website:

http://nmap.org/ncrack

You can also find an online version of the man page at:

http://nmap.org/ncrack/man.html

In addition, you can always download the latest svn source code like this:
svn co --username guest --password "" svn://svn.insecure.org/ncrack


Note that we have already received some bug reports on the highly-complex
RDP module. These issues will soon be resolved, but with this release we
let more people try the latest modules and report on new problems.

Please send all feedback to the nmap-dev mailing list
(nmap-dev () insecure org).

Finally here is the full list of changes since 0.02ALPHA:

o Ncrack can now crack the Remote Desktop Protocol on all Windows versions
  from XP and above, with the introduction of the RDP module. Users are
  well advised to read http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q3/450 for
  cracking Windows XP machines since they can't handle many concurrent RDP
  connections.

o Implemented the SMB module which can crack Microsoft's SMB/CIFS services
  as well as UNIX Samba servers.

o Introduced the '-f' option, which forces Ncrack to quit cracking a
  service after it finds one credential for it. Specifying the option twice
  like '-f -f' will cause Ncrack to completely quit after any credential is
  found on any service.

o Added support for blank-password testing. Ncrack will now test a blank
  entry whenever it sees an empty line in any of the wordlists. The same
  behaviour applies for passing the options --user '' or --pass ''.

o Improved the Ncrack scorpion logo with an updated SVG version (see
  the top of http://nmap.org/ncrack/)
