Hey there everybody,
I've been trying to install John the Ripper version 1.7.6 for a course on Network Security i'm taking to do a password auditing assignment.
I'm trying to install it on Ubuntu version 10.04.1, unfortunately the difference here is that for this assignment the professor has created/edited/what have you a version of JtR for SHA-512.He's given me a video, i've read the readme's and done everything correctly as far as I can tell until I get to the compiling bit.

"make clean linux-x86-64"

It begins to compile and then after a few seconds I get a string of error messages consisting of "error: bad register name (enter various files)"

I figure I might not get any help here given this is a particular version of JtR, but this assignment's due date is creeping up and i've yet to have responses from my professor or other students regarding this matter.

You won't get help here for ANY version of JtR. Requests for help with hacking/cracking tools are forbidden by LQ rules.

Not meaning to sound nasty, but we only have your WORD for it that it's for a 'class'. We don't know you, or what your real intentions are, and there's no way to prove it either.

Your problem is not related to JTR in the "help me crack this" sense but a software-compiling problem. Saying "(enter various files)" doesn't work. Post exact and complete (error) output.

Fair enough, I understand that there's not way to prove that it's for an assignment.

As far as the error messages go...

This is all I could get to fit in the terminal.

AFAIK there is no need to talk of assignments unless your actual assignment is to be able to compile and install JTR from source.


Is this output from John the Ripper version 1.7.6? Or from this "a version of JtR for SHA-512"? If the latter, where is the source or where are the patches to reproduce this? Can't you just run '(./configure 2>&1; make 2>&1; make install 2>&1)|tee /path/to/log.txt' and attach the plain text "log.txt" file?

Why not use the one on Backtrack 4... I say this because even having a utility like that means absolutely nothing *unless* you have some idea as how to use it. LOL
