switch automatically from wordlist to bf (NTLM)

[Snoopy]

Hello forum,

for the case the password is not found with wordlist.lst, is it possible to have hashcat automatically switched to brute force mode (e.g. up to 9 char password, all printable chars)

# hashcat -m 1000 -a 0 --force --show --username hash.txt wordlist.lst
How?
Thank you very much!
Joe

NEVER user --force 

also remove the --show because --show will not crack anything, --show is for showing already cracked passwords

the basic command, only things added is -r rules (copy the rules from rules folder) and -O for optimized kernel to speed up things

Code:

hashcat -a0 -m1000 -O --username -r best64.rule hash.txt wordlist.lst
