Subject: Re: rules - Q vs M and their effects on speed?
First of all, thanks for taking the time to answer :)
So, regarding the first example, it does make a difference in which order rules
are entered in the conf/ini file when the rules have a possibility "creating"
duplicate candidate words.
That way the Q can "cover" more than one rule/line?
I was under the impression that the Q and M switches were only applied to the
rule/line
in which they appeared...
So how does one decide in which rules to include a Q in order to avoid
as many duplicates as possible and how does Q's affect the spreed of which JTR
generated the new candidate passwords?
I'm still not sure that I fully understand the M function :(
Maybe expanding the example with a few words would make the explanation easier
to understand.. :)
I will experiment a bit with a small wordlist, rules and stdout to get a better
idea :)
Regards
