How can I use the hashcat brain? - gs135269 - 12-22-2018

I want to use the function of the hashcat brain, what command parameters are used on the server side and the client side to make the brain work.

My 2 computers are all windows10 systems under one LAN.
The hashcat version I am using is 5.1.0
I want to use a computer as the server side and b computer as the cracking host of hashcat.
What command parameters should I use on a computer, and what command parameters do b computers use to make a and b work?

Please help me, I hope to give a reference to the command.

On the server side:
"hashcat --brain-server --brain-host=IP --brain-port=port_number --brain-password=your_password"

On the client side (example):
"hashcat -O --brain-client --brain-client-features=3 --brain-host=IP --brain-port=port_number --brain-password=password -m 0 -a 0 hash_file.txt dictionary.txt -r your_rule.rule"

In my case on the server side (it's a remote server) I created a system service for hashcat-brain function.
I can start, stop, reload hashcat-brain service. After reboot the service started automatically.
