Hi all
I use Rclone to backup files to a cloud service and use crypt to encrypt my files along the way. I have the encryption password but the salt password that rclone generates seems to be missing a (1) character. I generated a 1024 bit password that gives me 171 characters, but mine is only 170, so it seem to be missing 1 character, probably at the beginning or end, but I'm not sure. Something happened when I copied it to my password manager.
So I have the encryption password, most of the salt password; i know the encrypted folder/file name and also what its supposed to be decrypted. Is there a way to use hashcat to figure out what the salt password should be, so I can decrypt my files? And if so, I would be very happy if someone could point me in the right direction. I just stumbled accross this tool while googling and watched some youtube videos, but none with this use case.
Any help would be much apprecaited
