Using Charset inside Mask

[Jackjames]

just a quick answer, use only the maskfile like this, charset has to be given inside the maskfile not on commandline as noted here

https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=mask_attack (see notes) -> It is not allowed for a [mask] to contain ?1,?2,?3 or ?4 references without those being set via [?1], [?2], [?3], [?4]. This will result in an error message. If you want to use a custom charset for your masks you must define it within the same line of the hcmask file by using the [?1], [?2], [?3], [?4] fields.

mask.txt
Luisdie,partialpass?1

Code:

hashcat -a 3 --stdout test/mask.txt

Code:

partialpasse partialpasss partialpassi partialpassu partialpassd partialpassL

as you can see, the second i is skipped by hahscat

maybe this will help to understand
mask.txt
TES,012,partialpass?1?2

results in 3*3 pw (3 chars 'TES' combined with 3 digits '012')

Code:

partialpassT1 partialpassS1 partialpassE1 partialpassT2 partialpassS2 partialpassE2 partialpassT0 partialpassS0 partialpassE0

Yes thanks a lot this works. So just specify each line of the mask with the charset.

Just one more question, im trying to also add a space into the charset using «space» but this doesnt seem to work. How to specify a space ?
