RE: password cracking a web form, tried hydra and brutus

["Rob Shein" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>]

The problem is you're trying to use HTTP authentication, instead of
submitting the results to the form. Your better bet is to work something up,
in perl most likely (but any tcp-capable language will do), that will submit
requests just as would happen if you were to sequentially try various login
attempts on their web page.

There are also other ways you could poke at it...have you tried SQL
injection attacks in either the password or login field?
