Thanks again.

What site? I'm talking about John The Ripper password cracker.

First save your password to file:

Code:

echo root:$(grep -A 13 lock_code /dev/mtd1|tail -1): > password

And then crack the password on your computer (john seems to be in extras-devel, so you might could do this slowly with your phone also):

Code:

john -format:DES -i:digits password
