Help sought for a research project
#8
Thanks for the hashcat command line info (I can confirm that my little radiator gets up to 75 degrees while running hashes!).. and thank you for the Mersenne prime suggestion, I'll definitely look into that one (also thanks to Undeath for the gaming suggestion, rest assured I've experimented with that too!Tongue)

What I'd like to do now is make the whole thing more interesting by using some 'real' data, and by showing a live readout of activity on a screen/terminal window. So could I take some file (like the one described here), have hashcat brute force the hashes, and finally show what it is doing on screen? (it doesn't really matter exactly what, as it is mainly for 'effect', however some 'relevant' data would be ideal). Could this on screen display be as simple as tailing a log file, or similar?

Again - thanks in advance.

With any luck I'll be taking a version of this work to the ACM Creativity and Cognition conference in Glasgow later this year.
