Doing some hash rooms on THM and whenever I run the hash files they give me ill just start like this.
john --wordlist=rockyou.txt hashfile
It will run and then output with a bunch of warnings telling me what possible hash types it could be but the hash doesn't get solved. I can still solve it by running a hash identifier then giving it the --format=(w/e format)
but my question is do I always need to give john the format? What if I have a list with mixed formats in there?
