This was our Final Project for Distributed Computing. In this we had to create a distributed system that will use the Brute Force Algorithm to crack a password from the etc/shadows file of Ubuntu as all the passwords are stored there. We used OpenMP and MPICH for this implementation.

All the files have been commented for your ease. Furthermore you may also add further comments if you may.
This project has equal contributions by [Sana Ali](https://github.com/sanaa-khan), [Abeera Fatima](https://github.com/ninjacarrot) and [Azka Khurram](https://github.com/AzkaKhurram) as this was our group project of Distributed Computing. We used 4 different systems and connected using the same internet connection (as can be seen in the machinefile).
This task was performed on Ubuntu x64.
