Ok, I just checked and indeed the password is "hashcat!"
(with wordlist "000.txt" containing "hashcat!" and no rule applied)
hashcat64.exe -m 2500 -a 0 hashcat.hccapx "C:\_WORDLISTS\000.txt"
And then I:
1) edited the wordlist file as: hashc
2) edited the rules file as: $a$t$!
hashcat64.exe -m 2500 -a 0 hashcat.hccapx "C:\_WORDLISTS\000.txt" -r rules\__xTEST.rule
Run and result: FAILURE again!
Running "hashcat64.exe "C:\_WORDLISTS\000.txt" -r rules\__xTEST.rule --stdout" outputs "hashcat!" so the work is correctly constructed BUT fails to work!
So? Can you please check and verify? Am I doing something wrong?
