Weird exception when cracking DES(unix)

[Hookeo]

Whoops - I totally missed the command order in your original post.

Simply follow the broad usage guidance from --help:

Code:

Usage: cudaHashcat [options]... hash|hashfile|hccapfile [dictionary|mask|directory]...

In other words, the dictionary/mask/directory should always be last, and the hashes should always be next to last, and all other options should come before them.

Thank you!  That actually helped explain quite a few questions I was having. I should've checked that.  I look at it initially when I didn't know most of the terms, and figured I could puzzle it together from examples.  So yeah, thank you very much!
