Subject: Using smbbf

Hi, I'm trying to password audit a windows 2000 machine across the
network. 
I'm using smbbf to do this (windows version).  Here is the issue I am
having:
 
The syntax I'm using is:
 
Smbbf -i 192.168.2.10 -u userlist.txt -p passwords.txt -v
 
This appears to do a dictionary attack, when I really wanted to do a
brute 
force. I already know the passwords on the target machine, and they are
not 
dictionary words. 
 
Is there a way to make smbbf use every keystroke, instead of reading
from a 
password file like I have done above? If not, can someone recommend a
free tool 
that can accomplish this?
 
Thanks
dissolved

May I ask why your trying to brute force the passwords if you already
know them?

If the goal is to test the length of time it would take to crack the
passwords, use pwdump to grab the SAM, and run it through john the
ripper or LC5.  Hell LC5 utilizing a full rainbow tables set will crack
99.99% of all passwords in just a few hours.  Granted a full rainbow
table set is over 50Gb.
