Hi,
I'm having the same challenge as OP: large wordlist (15G), want to use rules, would like to skip passwords under certain length. However I am puzzled by the given answers in this thread.
AIUI reject rules can't be used with -a0, because they can only be used with -j and -k, thus in a combinator attack.
Of course using stdout is an option, but then I'd have to somehow use the shell to skip small words, which sounds resource inefficient.
Writing everything to disk first, while cut'ing short words, then deduping, is also not an ideal option, since this obviously will generate a lot of disk I/O slowing down the entire exercise (not to mention that it probably will require an enormous amount of diskspace).
What's the recommended approach here?
Thanks
