Post: RE: Can you run hashcat backwards?

For what it is worth, you can use mdxfind for that. For example, to generate MD5's from a list call "words.txt": echo | mdxfind -z words.txt >words.md5 The -z causes it to "match" all of the...

There's something fundamental wrong. Try creating the hash with a known program, make it simple: md5 -s "a" for example. If you can't crack that, then your distribution may be corrupt, o...
