Post: RE: Combinator - how to save combined files.

I assume that you know that you could just regenerate them when you need them, and save the disk space. :) But saving general command output to a file is an OS/commandline thing - just basic redire...

Post: RE: Variable mask in the middle of the password

I'm not sure that I fully understand the use case. Can you provide a contrived example? For at least some part of the attack, you can hard-code a prefix and suffix: Code: -- $ hashcat --stdou...

You'll probably have to invent something, then, based on principles like: * If a hash:plain pair has more than one colon and isn't HEX-encoded, separate it out into its own file, then use a 'rev | ...

By default, cracks will be written to hashcat.potfile - you don't need -o. If you use -o, hashcat assumes that you're semi-automating something and a lot of the output is suppressed.

Discussion of speed needs to know what type of hash is the target. Either: A) your attack is malformed (can you post your syntax, omitting any real hashes?), or b) it's a pretty fast hash and y...

How big were the rulesets? Do you get better performance if you add a larger ruleset, like dive?

Running a hybrid attack on a single mask against a single hash would indeed be pretty inefficient.

"Association" is a general term here that allows attacks to be targets *on a per-hash basis*. In other words, you don't have to try each word against each hash. Instead, you can try just one word ag...

Post: RE: [sha256] Hash inside a hash

If it's the case that it's sha256(sha256(pass)), trying to discover that original 'pass' string is much more efficient. hashcat doesn't support that specific combo, but other tools (John the Ripper...

If the first sha256 was based on a shorter, less random string, you're far better off attacking that, and then just running sha256 on it. :) But if the first sha256 is of something large or random,...
