Smashthestack Blowfish Level 01
In this level when we are asked to telnet to blowfish.smashthestack.org on port 6666.
When doing that we get:
san@bart:~$ nc blowfish.smashthestack.org 6666
$1$4JKI4bjj$EucGdPgVb6uc4oTUQ.mJV0
----------------------------------
Crack this passwd with john the ripper
and use the password to login with
ssh level2@blowfish.smashthestack.org -p 2222

We download and install john the ripper and after that we create a file like this:
smashthestack1:$1$4JKI4bjj$EucGdPgVb6uc4oTUQ.mJV0
We run john the ripper with that as input and it breaks it really quickly:
$ ./john smashthestack
