    Hi,

    I made a small patch to the vncviewer part of the remote access
    software vnc, which runs uner a great number of platforms.
    With this patch applied, the vncviewer turns into
    a neat dictionary based remote cracker. The fun with vnc is
    that the password is 8 characters or smaller, and that vnc
    has no concept of users, which brings down the number of
    possibilities to try.

    The patch can be downloaded at
    http://www.pine.nl/~patrick/tmp/vnc-crack.patch, and should
    be applied to the vncviewer directory of the vnc source tree.
    It is based on vnc-3.3.3r1_unixsrc.tgz which can be downloaded
    at http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/.

    It's crude and ugly but it works.
