How do I know >> what mode it's in at any given time? Here's recent status output: >> As indicated, it does go through 3 modes, Single, Wordlist (defaults to password.lst) and Incremental. Incremental won't get out to a "great length" of characters for a very long time, but it will spit out some long ones here and there. Prince mode seems better suited to take on your tool however. Incremental takes time to exhaust different lengths and sets of characters, so if your script is making passes over 10-12 characters, it may take a long time for john to get there starting at 1 first. If you use -min-length=10 or something closer to the lenghts your looking at, you might see results sooner. You'd get some passwords of that length at times, but john incremental really hovers around one length at a time, but does jump around some. -rich
