Beginner Question: MD5+Salt (shadow)

[terrier]

Hi,

I trying to learn how to use oclHashcat, but I didn't find any good tutorial. So I created a password in /etc/shadow (CentOS 5 with MD5) and took the string

Code:

$1$DQ//MbKY$47uLg5b9VMxenvhmXv6yP0

After some research i think i managed to convert it into a hex from, which if I understood it correctly is requried for hashcat and I got the string:

Code:

e3b5251b907dbe65c43551ccc55e98a7:76afff981932

From my understanding (since option -m 1 (md5 + salt) does not exist any more i need to use option -m 11 instead. Sadly I am not able to figure out the correct syntax for it. I tried

Code:

oclHashcat-plus64.exe -m11 --hex-salt test.txt

and also

Code:

oclHashcat-plus64.exe -m11 --hex-salt -1 ?l?d test.txt ?1?1?1?1?1?1

Was the converstion done correctly / necessary?
What is the correct syntax to use?
If someone could send me a link to a tutorial, so I can learn it, i would appriciate it a lot.

EDIT1: Corrected some typos.

Thanks!
