This ruleset is already included in recent bleeding-jumbo, but in case of using an older version here it is: [List.Rules:oi] o[0-9A-Z][ -~] i[0-9A-Z][ -~] o[0-9A-E][ -~] Q M o[0-9A-E][ -~] Q i[0-9A-E][ -~] i[0-9A-E][ -~] This does one overstrike/insert up to length 36 and two up to length 14. With a fast hash like Eric's, this is very quick. If leetization might have been applied to the original password, then it may also be passed through --external=Leet or the masks previously posted in here may be used prior to applying the rules above (with a separate invocation of JtR).

Bad idea, unless you'd do it for fun. With just one hash to crack on just a few systems, it'll be easier for you to run different attacks or use the --node option on those nodes manually. And no need for shared storage. You'll take the one cracked password from whatever system cracks it. > the man page is woefully under documented/incomplete. Like I said, there's no official man page. There's only Debian's.

A factor of 10 or so difference in speed is very unlikely to result in your password getting cracked. In terms of improving your chances, your time is better spent on adjusting the attacks you run. Also, if you do want to buy extra hardware anyway, buy some recent GPUs rather than some old machines. And perhaps you already have some GPUs you could use, as well. > (something in the range of 8 to 10 years old as they are dirt cheap) They're also slow and not worth your time, unless you'd do it for fun.
