Hi all,
I'm new to hashcat and trying to learn how to use the tool.
I downloaded a file of hashes here: http://www.adeptus-mechanicus.com/codex/...shpass.php Specifically, I downlaoded the battielfield hashes file and saved it as bfield.hash.
Next, I downloaded a list of common passwords here: https://wiki.skullsecurity.org/index.php...=Passwords Specifically, it is phpbb.txt
Now, if i run the command:
./hashcat -m 0 bfield.hash phpbb.txt -o plain_wordlist_results.txt
Everything works great: I get the inverted MD5 hashes that I am able to with the ditionary phpbb.txt.
Where am I struggling, is cracking my own test examples. For instance, if I open my bfield.hash file in a simple text editor and literally copy and paste all the passwords into a new file, say, hashes.txt, and then run
./hashcat -m 0 hashes.txt phpbb.txt -o plain_wordlist_results.txt
I get a line length exception error.
So this must mean that the .hash file is formatted correctly while my custom file is not. What is happening?
Many thanks!
