# Start john everyday at the same to try to crack the passwords. The
# second line will then later stop the process so that it doesn't
# consume system resources that are needed otherwise. You are
# encouraged to change the times.
#
# Also notice that John is 'nice'd, if you don't like this (you
# believe that your system can run fine with john doing its work)
# just remove the 'nice' call
