RSAttak576...new factoring challenge

[orkblutt]

Hello,

the new rsa factoring challenge has just started: RSAttak576 at www.rsattak.fr.st
The same key than theneoproject but not same about the factoring algorithm ...

For the moment, the RSAttak client, run only under Linux and other Unix systems...

The project will be soon available on DC Repository ...

Thanks

Wait a minute!

Didn't we just got out of The Neo Project?

Is this the same thing or are we looking at a totally different project?

Kindly elaborate more before we start throwing GHz on your project!

[alpha]

We pulled out of Neo because of the X-Box Challenge. The RSA-576 challenge was what they originally took on which Free-DC happily contributed to until the X-Box Challenge arose.

[orkblutt]

The key has to factorize is the same one as that of Neo... (see http://www.rsasecurity.com/rsalabs/challenges/factoring/RSA-576.txt) The attack algorithm, different from that of Neo, is faster... Architecture client/server is functional...
:thumbs:

[orkblutt]

I work since 1999 on factorization algorithms and I always made my tests on the RSA keys of http://www.rsasecurity.com. After the 512 bits factorization, my tests of algorithm were made on the 576 bits... When I saw the birth of project NEO, I was turned sour a little, and I have to decide to implement my algorithms to distribute calculations and to double NEO. I regard my work like a mathematics project or of cryptography project... I does not want to use the "Net power" to cracking projects ...

Huh? Are you asking where are we as a Team?

Me no understand... :confused:

[orkblutt]

heuuuu?

why your team don't take part in RSAttak576 ??
:confused: :smoking:

[IronBits]

Where is the client to work on these factors?

[orkblutt]

the Unix client is on http://rsa576.d2g.biz:8080/en/download/telechargement

I might give it a try if there were a FreeBSD or Win32 client.

[IronBits]

I requested that a team name "Free-DC" be created.
Doesn't appear to be too English friendly on the registration page. :(
I think I registered, just waiting on the confirmation I guess...

Here is the FAQ page in English http://rsa576.d2g.biz:8080/en/faq

We need a French interpetor ...

http://www.aspenleaf.com/distributed/ap-crypto.html#rsattack576
RSAttack576, is a distributed effort to solve the RSA 576-bit challenge and win a $10,000 (US) prize.
The user who finds the winning key will receive $2,000 (US), and the user who processes the most packets will receive $1,000 (US).
The client is currently only available for Linux.
It does not appear to support users behind firewalls.
And it is not appropriate for dialup Internet users: it connects to the project server about every 50 seconds.
A future version will be more dialup-friendly.
The client is optimized for the AMD XP CPU.
Version 1.5 (stable) of the client is available as of February 17, 2003.

[IronBits]

Who and how does one win the $10,000??
It says $2,000 to the person who finds it...

I got a message from the project that Free-DC Team was created :D

[IronBits]

French to English on the Registration page.
I figured out
"Mot de passe *" means password
"Nom" = First Name
"Prénom" = Last Name
I assumed "Nationnalité" meant I should put in USA ...

[orkblutt]

yes:swear:
excuse me for the French pages... my english is not very sure :scared:
I have just translated the registering page into English....


Last Name & First Name are yours!!!


if you live in US your nationnality is US
:rotfl:


thanks Iron!!! (you have a nice Web site!! can you speak about RSAttak?)

I'm trying. ;) Client is straight forward. :)
Open a shell, I renamed my clent to RSA for ease of running
./RSA IronBits password -- takes right off with no problems.
It is consuming about 98% CPU now with no 'nice' settings being used.

[IronBits]

I'm coming for you! :D

ihihih

[IronBits]

I woke up this morning to the client saying the network was unavailable, and it was stopped :(
Network is available. I restarted it and see
status == -1 errno==104 in Socket::recv :(

Stopped it again, restarted it again, and I'm getting
Bad Authentication :confused: :bang:

[orkblutt]

yes...
MEA CULPA:spank:
I'm working on server to adapt windows client ...
excuse me...

It's good now :):thumbs:

[IronBits]

merci :D

[IronBits]

Anyone with a *nix box care to join me?
Just one would be fine... slow boxen with a little memory is fine.
Uses only 2,564kb of memory near as I can tell...

[orkblutt]

yes!!:)

[rus6]

I get:

Server message: Good luck
Computing...

Illegal instruction
[rjclark@localhost rsa]$

After I log in. I'm using the basic version on Redhat 8.0 (Pysche), running on AMD k6 2 -450

Any ideas?

[orkblutt]

have you download the AMD optimised client???

try with RSAttak_client_i386-1.5


:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

[IronBits]

:bang: Say it ain't so rus6! :swear:

[rus6]

I tried the Amd version as well, no joy either :(

This time it crashes straight after entering the password:

With the error "Illegal instruction"

I take it you don't have to wait for the project sign-up email to come through..

The box runs other projects fine, like OGR, SOB etc. So I doubt it's a client problem.

[IronBits]

Yes, you do have to wait for the Email that says your registered.
I don't believe it's automated yet :(
I'll bet that's the problem! :bang:

[Darkness Productions]

Are there plans to have some kind of basic stats for each of the teams? So that each member can compare himself to his teammates?

[orkblutt]

The first windows client is on line!!
www.rsattak.fr.st

you must to lower the priority process manually!!
or run with FireDaemon...

[IronBits]

Howdy Supp! :D

[orkblutt]

:cheers: :|party|: :jester: :rotfl: :smoking:

[IronBits]

Windows version appears to be *alot* slower than the linux client :(

[IronBits]

Well, I see the clients hung during the night, which is worse than quiting because the network can't be found.
I Stopped and restarted and they just hung (*nix), probably Server is hung.
I put them back on folding for awhile.

[orkblutt]

yes...
i've a little server problem....
but it' will be ok in nexts days...

Server is flood victim :cry:
I'm working to stop this!:swear:

[orkblutt]

NEW WINDOWS CLIENT VERSION!!!!

increase speed x5 (cygwin)
and more stable :)

http://nyx.unice.fr/~dejean/RSAttak_client_i386-cygwin32.zip


the server problem is down ;)

[orkblutt]

To prevent server saturation by a great number of connect simultaneous and to will be a real big DC project, I am migrating the data bases and treatment on another computer. To do that I must re-examine the soft part server architecture to optimize treatments... The principal server thus will be cut... I think of being able to finish and test the new server in less than one week( I hope less...I think less..but I'm alone and i prefer say about 1 week)... I 'm installing a temporary server... but I do not think that it can support a great number of connect :ogl22

:notworthy please patience ...it's nothing one week:rolleyes: :crazy:

[Supp]

Ah, win32 client...finally - I'd no time to switch boxen from Win to Lin so this project was 'off limit' for me till now :)
Gotta put some boxes here...

[IronBits]

Not you again!! :bang: :D
Welcome aboard. I'm taking a breather atm tho ;)
What projects are you running over there?
I want to make sure you're not trying to sneak up on me ;) :rotfl:

[orkblutt]

yop yip
:scared:

I'm working on rsattak server...
it's curently down!!
but in 2 or 3 days , it'll be up and fastter!!!!:smoking:

thanks , be patients!!!:cheers:

I have been receiving emails from orkblutt at msn dot com over the past few days confirming user signups. In other words, I am somehow receiving other users logins and passwords. This has happened for the following users:

cyberneuil
BrenteR
Obi

You may want to change their passwords, or even better - figure out why I was sent their confirmation email :) (just noticed - those three users are all on the 'AMD Users' team, according to the email).

[orkblutt]

arrrggghhhh


thanks alpha...
it's a little mail confirmation error...it's right now!

But I'm! :rotfl:

[orkblutt]

hello:rotfl:
a little "my account" web page on rsattak.fr.st is avaible :)
It's just a test...because "my account" will be bigger and will have more complex stats...

I'm working also on the mandrake 9.1 client segfault error...a new version will be soon...:moon:

go:sleepy:

[IronBits]

Well done! :D

[orkblutt]

:|party|: New build version for win2000

[orkblutt]

hummmm

please..exscuse me for the last server down time...(3 day :( )
i had migrated my internet account but the french internet providers like "wanadoo" are crazy...:flaming

Now the RSAttak server connection is a 1024/512 bits /s
(sufficient for 1000 users...but if more it will must new connection and new computer...)
I must to find donations or sponsors...:help

The new win2000 version works good now... (don't forget to delete yours old cygwin1.dll before...)
