I know it is there. That is where I got all this information. HOWEVER. It does not show you how to use these in the gui. It simply states things such as "A variable is indicated by the ? letter followed by one of the built-in charset (l, u, d, s, h, D, F, R) or one of the custom charset variable names (1, 2, 3, 4)."
I understand what it means but not how to use it in the gui.....so yes I see it there and this and many others I have already read. This it not a good intro. Its like a linux man file but without the actual syntax example at the top. In this case not the syntax for the gui or CLI.
The problem is I understand what it is saying but not how to implement it.
EXAMPLE: Mask under cudaHashCat-plus. Under Brute Force then the sub option of Mask I dont know what to put here? And that wiki you mentioned does not say how to implement the SYNTAX. Please understand what I am trying to say. The actual variable is understood but the the order or combination that I can use is not understood. HOW do I ask it to guess for any position for a 1-16 character password LCase/UCase/Numbers/Special Chars for all positions. I tried ?l?u?s?d?h But if I understand the wiki than I am only asking it to check a 5 character password and in the exact order of variables where it will NOT CHECK for digits in the 1,2,3,5 positions....only 4th position.
If I do ?d?d?d ....does this mean it only looks for digits in position 1 2 and 3. So if instead the password is a23...hahscat wont figure it out as I did not specify ?l?d?d instead????
This is my issue. That syntax is not explained. The wiki uses too simple of examples...
My concern is how am I suppose to GUESS the position of the letters/numbers/special chars/.....I want to brute force and have my 2 GeForce 580s guess.
