Files containing credential stores sorted by operating system.

The one for finding WPA keys is pretty neat, cracking WPA has never been easier.

 

Also try searching for files with 'pwd', 'pass', 'logins', etc. in the filename, you'd be amazed how many people store 
work and personal credentials in unsecured text files, easily found on their computers.  I've literally tripped right 
over them doing forensics.

While this is not quite an answer to your question, I think it may help you find out. Nir (http://www.nirsoft.net/) has 
a bunch of tools to extract local passwords. Grab some of his tools, run them with procmon, and see what files and reg 
keys they try to grab. Then you have a few place to look.

Sounds like a good topic for a wiki page, or even a whole site. There
is the pauldotcom wiki, I'm sure the good peeps on the list could
quickly fill in the blanks. I know I have some stuff I can contribute.

No, I'm not looking for rainbow tables.  I'm looking for files that
various programs and services use to store user credentials in, the
type of encoding or hashing that is used on them if any and the
operating system(s) that they might appear on.

I'm looking for a site or sites that contain large and if possible
comprehensive lists of files contain username and/or password
credentials.  The credentials can be plain-text, encoded or hashed and
if they are encoded or hashed it would be nice to have the method(s)
that was employed to generate these.  I'm thinking of files beyond
just the normal /etc/shadow, /etc/master.passwd stuff .htaccess to
files for specific programs and userland files including svn-auth-file
and ~/.vnc/passwd types of content and even more exotic vendor
specific stuff to look for.  If anyone can point me to someplace with
a good list of these or would like to attach a list that you've
compiled I would appreciate it.
