Jul 24, 2014 at 5:25 comment added fgrieu Yes, with the assumption of a known plaintext block common to enough instances of the problem to make a precomputation worthwile, what you are describing is feasible. However that does not apply in the situation of the question: there is no indication of multiple instances, and I see no hope to find an existing rainbow table that applies, for we need a different table for each known plaintext block.
Jul 24, 2014 at 3:53 comment added Antikithira If you wanted to crack a single message for a single DES key then yes, it wouldn't help. If you could predict a specific plaintext which could be a name or something like that then a rainbow table could be built to help even if the DES key was changing for every message or if you had limited amount of time to attack the message. No?
Jul 23, 2014 at 4:47 comment added fgrieu A rainbow table to crack DES encryption, really? If you maintain that assertion, give us details!! Absent these, I consider this is a serious confusion.
