PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA1 format for WPA hex key

[CryptoKiddie]

base64-encoding the hex data is wrong. You first need to decode the hex, then base64-encode the result.

Aditionally based on this post I modified the salt (ESSID) with a ":" at the end. In the post the seperator for John the Ripper is "$".

I have no idea why you did this, but don't.

Perfect it works!
I missed this information. For the long term it was useful to find it somewhere.

I set the colon at the end of the ESSID because here magnum built it into the input string so I thought it is maybe needed/defined in the IEEE802.11.

Code:

echo 'Harkonen:$pbkdf2-hmac-sha1$4096$486[...]

(the "Harkonen:" in this line is just a "username" that will be output if/when the hash is cracked. It's not part of the hash itself and can be omitted).

Thanks for helping
