hi,
I'm using hashcat GUI and I want to crack hash from etc/shadow
but I don't understand exactly which part of hash I need to use

hash :
$6$<removed>

I choose the hash type sha512($salt.$pass)
but I always get line length exception

Can anybody tell me, what I'm doing wrong?
thanks
take a week to read the rules.
$6$ hashes in /etc/shadow are not sha512($salt.$pass). try harder.
