Kali Linux under Hachcat installation

Online about Hachcat Simple use of the introduction of a lot of, but very few in the Kali Linux installation tutorial, looked for a long time, finally installed successfully, hereby will be used for reference in the following records:

#首先安装p7z for extracting the downloaded p7z package

#然后安装hashcat

Lets Begin The journey of Cracking passwords ..... Download Hashcat:

Download the latest hashcat on your Linux distribution (My distribution are Ubuntu) from the Hashcat website.

$ wget https://hashcat.net/files/hashcat-2.00.7z

To extract the archive, you need to having 7zip utility installed. If you do have an it on your system, install it:

Redhat/centos/fedora

$ yum Install P7zip

In the case, if yum install didn ' t work for you and then need to Setup Yum repository that contains p7zip Packag E.

Ubuntu/debian

$ apt-get Install P7zip

Unpack:

Extract the archive using the installed 7zip utility

Redhat/centos/fedora

$7za x hashcat-2.00.7z

Ubuntu/debian

$ p7zip-d hashcat-2.00.7z

Now change to the Hashcat directory:

$ CD hashcat-2.00

You can see the binary executable as shown below:

$ ls-l Hashcat-cli*.bin

In latest version of Hashcat 3.6.0

The binary file is named as Hashcat64.bin if it's 64bit and hashcat32.bin if it is 32bit

Based on your Hardware & OS installation, choose either 32bit or bit binary. You can find out using the command:

$uname-a Linux ubuntu 3.13.0-65-generic #106-ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 2 22:08:27 UTC x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 gnu/linux

Since My OS is a bit, I would use Hashcat binary compiled on 64bit (hashcat-cli64.bin). Just lives easier, lets copy the binary to the standard binary locations like:/usr/bin/

$ CP hashcat-cli64.bin/usr/bin/
