After each iteration (1-2 seconds) naive-hashcat stops and waits for user input #9

Hello,

It might be a stupid question. But while I'm trying to run naive-hashcat, it stops after each iteration and prints: [s]tatus [p]ause [b]ypass [c]echpoint [q]uit => I'm trying to avoid this problem running yes b | ./naive-hashcat.sh

Hi there,

Are you sure that the behavior you are observing is actually stopping each attack? If memory serves me correctly, that is the standard message printed by hashcat during a crack, and it indicates the crack is operating normally, but you as the user have several options to interrupt it or view in-progress information. For instance, pressing "s" during a crack should print information about the current crack. The reason you are seeing several of these messages in succession is that naive-hashcat attempts several separate cracks using different combinations of rules. One of these messages should be printed for each run of the hashcat binary.

@brannondorsey is right. I thought that when this message is printed, attack stops which is not true.
