Are there any programs available that will sweep through a 
passwd file and a Kerberos database and attempt to crack
users' passwords?

There are programs available to do this just with /etc/passwd
files, but I'm not familiar with anything that tries to 
crack Kerberos passwords.

I am interested in this because I suspect that many of our
users have very "crackable" passwords and we are trying to
get a better handle on this.

Thanks,
