Full Version: Cannot get it to work with salt
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I have been experimenting trying to find a password and salt I created but it never seems to work although it works fine with just the password.

I'm using the latest oclHashcat64.exe and HashcatGui as a front end.

I have created a sha1 hash of :

passtext = 80439F84D16111C24A7748F40B95F12696FB545B

and a salt of

foosalt = 666F6F73616C74

I create a hash.txt of:

80439F84D16111C24A7748F40B95F12696FB545B:666F6F73616C74

and use the hash type of sha1($pass,$salt)

but it just exhausts

If I do this without the salt 'SHA1' it works fine.

Am I missing something here?
if you're going to specify the salt in hex, then you need use --hex-salt. otherwise, just use 80439F84D16111C24A7748F40B95F12696FB545B:foosalt
It just exhausts the same.

I dont know if this is maybe an issue with HashcatGUI

I just use:

Charset of ?l

Mask ?l?l?l?l?l?l?l?l?

Length 8 - 8

And I just get this

If I remove the salt and change it to Hash Type: SHA1 it works fine.

Just ignore everything I said. I'm a Knob end. Maybe its time for bed here. I had incorrectly hashed the password and salt.................... Undecided
