len.exe returns empty wordlist
#1
Hey everybody!

I love Hashcat and it's utility pack Hashcat-utils.
But, when I use "len" to trim a wordlist of 50GB to WPA rules, it works for about 5 minutes and it's done. When it is done, it only returns a empty textfile.
I've tried doing it multiple times, tried in a new CMD session.

It worked on a 33GB wordlist, and trimmed it down to 3GB, but not on that 50GB one and a 28GB one.

OS Windows 7-64bit, 16GB memory, hashcat-utils-0.9

Can you post your commandline?

Also, there is no need to trim wordlists for usage with WPA, oclHashcat-plus automatically "rejects" them. Thats the counter you see in the status display.

I know that most WPA crackers rejects them, but they take up necessary space ;-)
