Informative output
#1
So im using hashcat to run an analysis on password standards. is there a way to output to a file so that when a new hash is cracked (its cracking several in one file ) it outputs into a file with some information, like iterations it took to crack, time, the cracked hash it self. etc. I need this because i am leaving hashcat to run over night and my terminal wont allow me to go back up to the beginning, therefore rendering the information unaccessible.  thanks ahead Smile
[EDIT] yes i do know how to output to a file by using -o, but wont that take up so much space?

You probably want to mix the rule-debug outputs with the extended output formats such as crackpos. All are listed here: https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=hashcat

yes but how could i get the time, thats actually  the important part to me . And crackpos i assume is the iterations right?

It's a bit more complicated, because of the parallel computing. The important part here is that it's a unique ID (per session).
