Word List or Mask is too smaill error HELP

[AtomTan]

Hey. 

So after finally getting my hashcat to start since it wouldn't load Hashes I had a question about wordlist format. 

I downloaded rockyou word list but all the words are joined together with no spaces between. Does it have to be one word per line like that hash file? If so anyway to fix it?

Above is a snapshot of the error message i am getting anybody know what this means? I am trying to run a bruteforce with md5 hashes with a wordlist and the command i am using is

hashcat64.exe -m0 -a3 -o cracked.txt hash.txt word2.txt

what am i doing wrong.

"wordlist" and "bruteforce" are mutually exclusive

Ok what do you mean by that? What do I need to run in able to crack hashes mainly md5 hashes? Is the command I am running completely wrong? I have tried looking into it everywhere but it is very unclear for me.

In this case hashcat would load word2.txt as a maskfile, when then would try to iterate through all words as single (static) masks. That's absolutely not what you want.

I am trying to use rockyou.txt  to focus on passwords of 6 characters of the form ?u?l?l?l?l?d?.  I downloaded princeprocessor, and tried to use the following commmand:


./pp64.bin ?u?l?l?l?l?d?  < rockyou.txt
i received an error message  about the options of the pp64 command.
executing    the following command lead to a system crash.
./pp64.bin  < rockyou.txt

Thank you
