    Thread: Single 15 char NTLM Hash with known info
Post: RE: Single 15 char NTLM Hash with known info

You can use whatever rules make sense for your target. You may have to experiment with --stdout to determine whether the combination of --case-permute and your rules are doing what you're expecting.

Post: RE: Rejecting candidates under X characters while ...

Yeah, I see the Layer-8 use case. You need to be able to assure people that you're not cracking passwords that are 15 chars or longer. There's no way I know of within hashcat itself to guarantee that...

Post: RE: Rejecting candidates under X characters while ...

Hmm, I wonder how hard it would be to modify hashcat to use -O to reject longer than 14 instead of 15.

    Thread: bcrypt $2*$, Blowfish (Unix) slow speed
Post: RE: bcrypt $2*$, Blowfish (Unix) slow speed

What value is in the "cost" field of your hash? (the second $-separated field, two digits wide)? Based on the speed you're getting, I'm guessing that it's probably cost 10? If so, that speed is norma...

Post: RE: bcrypt $2*$, Blowfish (Unix) slow speed

(Unless you also post the plaintext, please don't post hashes.) Your performance is quite normal for cost 10 on a 1080.

Yes, UTF8 is probably fine for WPA2 entered via a web interface. It sounds like you have the rest of the basics covered. Good luck!

Being self-taught can be rewarding. With just a little bit of reading (hashcat FAQ, some examples/demos on YouTube), you can get the basics down pretty quickly.

Post: RE: Cracking foreign words/characters

It's often better to encode the custom charsets in the mask file itself, because it's persistent documentation of the nature of the attack that lives beyond that particular commandline.

Pretty sure that hashcat isn't skipping any of the keyspace. But I'm not sure why there's a difference in the output percentage.
