Understanding Mask - Jackjames - 01-07-2021
As i am new and trying to understand how to setup hashcat correcly i have some questions.
Im using the gui version to make it easier in the start.
I want to set the brute force on 8 character password.
I want the password to contain: Small letters, symbols, and digits
So i have selected mask : ?1?1?1?1?1?1?1?1
I set enable mask increment mode 7 - 8 ( as it is 8 characters.)
I enable custom charset 1 and set this to: ?l?s?d
Is this the correct way of setting it up ?
I started it but it runs for like 10 min not trying even 1 combination.

To perform said attack you need to use this mask -1 ?l?s?d ?1?1?1?1?1?1?1?1 and then the increment mode... -i --increment-min=7 --increment-max=8 resulting in this a command that would look like this:
Code:
hashcat -m xxxx -a 3 path_to_hashfile -i --increment-min=7 --increment-max=8 -1 ?l?s?d ?1?1?1?1?1?1?1?1RE: Understanding Mask - Jackjames - 01-08-2021

Yes i figured it out. Im using the GUI version that the guy on the forum made.
