I want to generate wordlist with these rules: 8 characters, at least one uppercase letter, at least one lowercase letter, exactly two numbers. I've done a lot of google searching, and can't seem to understand how to do this. Can I get some directions on where to look or how to proceed?

    Are you looking to generate passwords by modifying existing dictionary words, or are you looking to generate all possible passwords matching that pattern? (That's going to be a very very large list.) – John Deters Mar 29 '18 at 04:31

crunch is a password generator that can do some of what you may be looking for.

crunch 8 8 -t ",@@@@@%%"

is a command that will generate a set of passwords that are exactly 8 characters long following the provided template:

, generates an upper case character
@ generates a lower case character
% generates a digit

You probably want to set various options to crunch to limit the output. For example, a small test of only four characters, like this: crunch 4 4 -t ",@%%" generates 67600 words.

See man crunch for more details.
