If Ailton meant that, then that's only 168 masks -- which seems
feasible to me, depending on the context.

Using policygen from the (unrelated to JtR) PACK toolkit:

$  ./policygen.py --minlower=5 --maxlower=5 --minupper=2 --maxupper=2
--mindigit=1 --maxdigit=1 --minlength=8 --maxlength=8
                       _
     PolicyGen 0.0.2  | |
      _ __   __ _  ___| | _
     | '_ \ / _` |/ __| |/ /
     | |_) | (_| | (__|   <
     | .__/ \__,_|\___|_|\_\

Use the --showmasks option to output all 168 masks.
