- Yes, probably i don't find right combination yet. All this thread is just about that i want to be sure that i am not running it with bad configuration (something that i am miss) that can lead to endless running without success

- I use rules (i have also build my own special rules)


To sum it up, some 5500 hashes:

- have client challenge - they need to be used otherwise password is not found! (e.g. original hashcat test example)
- some hashes are without client challenge and runs fine (e.g. bradtest example)
