Save progress every x seconds-hashcat-cli64.exe
#1
Hello

I would like to know how to save the progress of hashcat-cli64.exe running on windows server 2008 every 5 minutes?

The main purpose is to be able to resume the session in case the PC is turned of or restarted. In that situation I am not able to see the session number to resume.
I'm not using wordlist, just brute force mode for WPA.

thanks

Is there a flag to choose the session name? On --help I didn't find it.

Hashcat does not use the --session flag, that is for oclhashcat. No method to save Hashcat progress that i am aware of

when you kill hashcat it will tell you which -s value you need to use to resume the attack.
