[pwdguess] Use the password hashes of leaked databases #1

Instead of giving a few password hashes to crack, would it be feasible to let the students work with the hashes of leaked password databases? Maybe a class-joint effort to crack all passwords in a database, or a first-to-crack-most competition?

The fork argument for JtR makes breaking quite fast, e.g. 3 min for the UNIX password.
