Subject: RE: IPB2 and syntax - same question but still confuse

I really wonder if the file itself does NOT contain a tab between the user
and the hash.  Pick a character that is NOT used, make a sample file with
just that one hash, and use that char as the separator character, 

$ cat test1.txt
user-md5_gen(12)6e8bb151fbed7cee93acf6b0288c79a7$r{)<|

$ john -i:all test1.txt -fie=-
using field sep char '-' (0x2d)
Loaded 1 password hash ( md5_gen(12): md5(md5($s).md5($p))  (IPB)  [SSE2
16x4x2 (intr)])
guesses: 0  time: 0:00:00:06 0.00%  c/s: 170890  trying: meltroca - methes03

The problem is the file does not contain the characters he thinks it does.
The (0x09) on the command line, shows that he is getting the tab on the
command line (you should also be able to use -field_sep='\x9' for the tab)

I changed my test file to properly have a tab \x09 and used this john
command, and it work just fine.

$ john -i:all test1.txt -fie='\x9'
using field sep char '  ' (0x09)
Loaded 1 password hash ( md5_gen(12): md5(md5($s).md5($p))  (IPB)  [SSE2
16x4x2 (intr)])

Here is the version being used.
