Parse Error
#1
Trying to run hashcat: but get (Failed to parse hashes using the 'native hashcat' format) can't seem to figure out what I am doing wrong or what is causing the problem.

/hashcat64.bin -m 3000 --username -l ?u?d?s /Documents/OffSec/labHashes/1.5-ntlm ?1?1?1?1?1?1?1

hashcat (v3.30) starting...

No attack mode specified. Add -a 3

Custom charset is -l instead of -1. Change to -1 ?u?d?s

I haven't seen your hashlist format so possibly try without --username

Double-check that -m 3000 (and not 1000) is the right hash mode.

Code:
/hashcat64.bin -m 3000 -a 3 --username -1 ?u?d?s /Documents/OffSec/labHashes/1.5-ntlm ?1?1?1?1?1?1?1

Tried:

./hashcat64.bin -m 3000 -a 3 --username -1 ?u?d?s /Documents/OffSec/labHashes/ntlmTest ?1?1?1?1?1?1?1


also tried with -m 1000 as well. Still get,

Failed to parse hashes using the 'native hashcat' format

hash file looks like: 

If I try it without the usernames using this command:

./hashcat64.bin -m 1000 -a 3 /Documents/OffSec/labHashes/1.5-ntlm ?1?1?1?1?1?1?1

I get this error.

Hash '/Documents/OffSec/labHashes/1.5-ntlm': Line-length exception

Contents from the hash file:
#4

Those hashes aint -m 3000 (LM) but could be -m 1000 (NTLM). The "Line-length exception" message is because your first hash is 31 bytes instead of 32. hashcat will continue after skipping this.

EDIT: Oh yeah, remove the hashes before the ban-hammer does what it does best.
