Subject: Sv: Cracking rar password with rar-opencl

Hm...

Looks like my CPU is the only device being used now.
In previous session my GPU was used. We determined that GPU had better
performance.

Wrong.  You would not be restoring anything, but starting a new attack.
So the command might be e.g.:

john --session=rockyou --wordlist=rockyou.txt rar-hash.txt

You can also try adding "--fork=2", although this specific attack is
expected to complete in a couple of hours anyway.

The "--session=rockyou" is so that you don't overwrite progress made by your
previously running attack, and can continue that one if desired.
In fact, you can just keep it running simultaneously (which also eliminates
the need for "--fork=2").

Hmm.  This raises doubts whether you're even supposed to have that password.
;-)  That said, you can put the likely "base words" in a text file and then
use:

john --session=custom --wordlist=custom.txt --rules=all rar-hash.txt

This will test more "different variants" than you'd test manually.

This doesn't really matter, because either 15 or 20 is way out of reach for
a (semi-)exhaustive search against a RAR archive, whereas when you're
testing e.g. the RockYou list you can do so without having to restrict it by
password length.
