+Hydra (A very fast network login cracker)
+
+One of the biggest security holes are user passwords, as every
+password security study shows. This tool is a proof of concept,
+to give researchers and security consultants a way to demonstrate
+how easy it would be to gain unauthorized access to a remote system.
+ THIS TOOL IS FOR LEGAL PURPOSES ONLY!
+
+postgresql is an optional dependency, as is sap, but sap is not
+available at SBo.
+
+This SlackBuild includes an option to omit the GTK-based frontend
+xhydra.
+To omit xhydra, just pass XHYDRA=0 to the script:
+ XHYDRA=0 sh hydra.SlackBuild
+
+See the README installed in /usr/doc/hydra-$VERSION for more info
