Thanks for your response.
Which approach is inefficient my overall approcah or the actual attack modes - hybrid or brute force? The brute force only took a day (24 hrs) and recovered 90% of the 3000 hashes.
The dict was pretty simple...and repetative
Sampe hybrid passwords recovered Thu20030, monday4,monday21, monday10 etc
Sample bruteforce passwords recovered Monday1, Fri2003, Tuesday1, friday6
At first I thought it was a case issue, but checked the dict file and they were all present for the hybrid (dict + mask) attack
I also has similar issues with months like aug01, nov02, april03..some being found in hybrid others in bruteforce but all lowercase were present in the dictionaly for the hybrid attack...
