need help finding md5 salt..
#1
Sad 
i am trying to find the salt used for this function:
md5($uid.$uname.$ismod.$salt)

uid is 8972
uname is mekolat
ismod is 0
salt is an unknown lowercase alnum string of 16 characters

here's the hash: 70XXe51f7XX1b7916XX25eacc3XXb317


What settings should i use to crack it?

md5($salt.$pass).
Your hash should look like 70XXe51f7XX1b7916XX25eacc3XXb317:8972mekolat0 .
However, if you do the math, you will learn that bruteforcing a alphanumeric string of 16 characters is futile.
For 1000 7970s, for instance, it would take ~30690.4 years.
