I have a network camera, where the default password does not work. It is probably something simple though, so I though I should try a stock password breaker. What should I use to try to crack my network camera's basic auth login/password on port 80 on my local network? Nessus?

Do a full factory reset on your camera as suggested by @vonbrand. Consult your camera manual to find out how to achieve a full factory reset. The manual should also document the default password after factory reset.
If you have root/sudo access, it'd be much, much easier to reset the password directly:
sudo passwd foo
where 'foo' is the account owner of the camera.
If you don't have root access, ask for permission from whomever has it.

Oh, did I perhaps misunderstand? Is this actually living a life of its own?– igelkottFeb 17, 2013 at 11:54
