Used VeraCrypt container for a while now, and don't remember which hash and cipher (definitely was a cascade, but don't remember which) were used when it was created.
Somehow I managed to forget a password, while having a pretty good guess on what an almost correct password is (i think I either forgot couple of letter sequence, or correct keyboard layout, or both), and I've generated a dictionary with couple of thousand combinations of password candidates.
I've started reading tutorials on Vera/TrueCrypt usage of hashcat, but it mentions that I will have to know and use correct hash-cipher combination.
When I use VeraCrypt it doesn't ask me for a hash and cipher. Should I look for another solution, or write my own app that will attempt to mount VeraCrypt through a commandline, feeding it a passwords from my dictionary, or is there a way to use hashcat without knowing hash/cipher, and without trying every possible combination manually?
