    Thread: Dedicated hashcat brain server

The amount of RAM you'll need is highly variable, depending on the attacks you'll be carrying out, with factors like: * Whether all systems will be on the same LAN, vs operating over a WAN connecti...

By default, hashcat expects bare hashes (without username). To ignore username, use --username. With -a 0, you also need to supply a wordlist. If you want to try the default mask attack set instea...

    Thread: Brain as a centralized potfile?
Post: RE: Brain as a centralized potfile?

1. Yes. All candidates are centrally reported and indexed. For slow hashes, this is effective, because it allows all clients to skip those candidates. For fast hashes, this will quickly bottleneck the...

I'll take a look. Thanks for the heads-up! Note that you can often use 'hashcat --example-hashes' as a workaround.

OK, I've done the easy ones (that don't require a file upload to hashcat.net), and I've made inquiries about the remainder. Thanks again - good eye!

    Thread: Wordlist massive attack
Post: RE: Wordlist massive attack

You can assemble the passphrases from a one-word-per-line wordlist, using princeprocessor, and then pipe it to hashcat, using one of the prince_*.rule rules files to supply more work to the GPUs.

A hybrid attack might be fine. If you generate the wordlist on the fly, no need to store it anywhere. I'd do it with everything but the first four digits prepended and then pipe the output of that scr...

The rules would probably have to stop there, because the number of combinations would probably go up pretty quickly - adding three specials to the previous calculation would be 600K rules x (35^3) wou...

Post: RE: Rule Question

Fair question. If the rule file contains the "do nothing" rule directive ( : - just a colon by itself), then the original unmodified input words will be used.

And if it needs to be more than two words wide, you can do something crude like this: https://gist.github.com/roycewilliams/18e3fb14b97cc05eb95a5645692bccc2

Post: RE: [PrinceProcessor] Trying to change --pw-max

Yeah, the startup time is non-trivial for sure. A big value of PRINCE is in keeping "state" about which words appear most frequently (based on their order in the original wordlist). So if that's not i...

Post: RE: Should I be using a rule instead?

There's no way for a single mask to express optional characters (that I'm aware of). But if you pass a file containing the masks, they are processed in succession very quickly.

Good point! True for this particular case, but not the more general case. :P ;)

Yep, you can't do that. It looks like you're trying to do a combinator attack. There's a direct combinator attack (which is -a 1), or there is a way to simulate a selectes subset of combinator effect...
