  • single: Single crack mode. This is only recommended for weak passwords as it includes only a few rules and a small wordlist.

    Usage: john -single crackme.txt

  • wordfile: Uses a wordlist (basically a dictionary attack). What this does is tries every word in the list until it finds a match or you reach the end of the list. This is quicker than the default (bruteforce) attack, but I don't recommend this because it doesn't always find a match. More notes on wordlists below.

    Usage: john -wordfile:password.lst crackme.txt

  • rules: Lets you define the rules for using wordlists. I don't use wordlists, so if you want to use this option I wont help you. Ok, ok, I'm just lazy. Shoot me.
  • incremental: I like this method. It allows you to do a bruteforce attack
    under certain modes.

    Usage: john -incremental:alpha crackme.txt (only letters)
           john -incremental:digits crackme.txt (only numbers)
           john -incremental:lanman crackme.txt (letters, numbers, and some special characters)
           john -incremental:all crackme.txt (all characters)
