Hi All, Thanks for the excellent responses that I received through the list. I did google for wordlists before posting and as several people mentioned, got a lot of hits back. The main reason for posting was to discover which ones people found the best and to get recommendations. The number of responses I've received has been excellent. I now have quite a selection of word lists which I will use to compile into one of two customer ones of my own. Thanks again guys.

As you see, there's a lot of them and some of them are pretty freakin' huge. Case in point: the one I use for running dictionary attacks is 67Meg. My recommendation would be to download ALL the wordlists you can find, then pipe them through sort and uniq to get rid of duplicates. Don't forget to add in a few of the phrase and quite lists you'll run across. A lot of systems enforce 8 character + password lengths, which means you'll want to find longer words for the list. And don't forget special characters! Let me know if you run into any trouble compiling a list. Cheers, L4J
Hi All, I'm pretty new to pen-testing and was wondering if anyone can point me
in the direction of some pre-made work lists for use with password cracking utils??
Any ideas would be appreciated. Cheers Rob Rob Lay CCSP CCNP Network Engineer
