Newbie Question - oprey - 01-09-2016

Hey, I used to use hashcat to decrypt md5 hashes however I stopped a few months ago (07-26-2015) and now I've forgotten what the commands were. I tried to google my issue however I couldn't find an exact answer or solution.

heres the error, my hashes looks like this:

2b7454af9eeb36e9c9925acc4c98e7d149xxxxxx

the lenght of the hashes are 
Your string is 40 characters long.

so I guess I'm using wrong method? Aren't these md5?

made the last 6 chars xxxxxx as i think Its not allowed to put a hash here :S

This is not a real hashcat question, know your shit.


RE: Newbie Question - oprey - 01-09-2016

Hey sir. I'm not trolling around or trying to be rude but I really don't know how to fix this as I didn't have this before, can it be because of my hashes? Can you at least give me a hint :/


RE: Newbie Question - Xanadrel - 01-09-2016

Here is a hint: not every hex string is a md5 hash, there are many different algorithms.
If you're not a lame skiddie you should know what your hashes are.
