How to find a salt for a hash if you have the plain text

[Hxsh]

Alright so I have a hash and the plaintext password. How would I go about finding the salt associated with the hash that would equal the plaintext password.

Is there a way to do this in hashcat?

Being able to brute force salts isn't a feature of hashcat.  But there is nothing stopping you from creating the salts yourself and including them along with the hash in a hash file.

You can create the file with a static hash value and try different salts.

Make the hash file look like:

Code:

hash:salt1
hash:salt2
hash:salt3

You get the idea.

wouldn't that take up alot of space?
