No support for SHA512(Unix) passwords over 16 characters? - BeanBagKing - 11-23-2015

- modes 500, 1600, 1800, 3200, 5300, 6300 and 7400 are limited to 16 characters
The next version turned into oclHashcat v1.00. It doesn't appear that the limits were removed in this version, or any later versions of oclHashcat that I can find. However, in hashcat v0.48 they were removed for the CPU powered version.
I'd post this on Trac, but it doesn't seem to want me to register. (Warning: You must specify a valid email address.)
