oclHashcat and cudaHashcat distribution was updated.
Now the server admin can create multiple "releases" of hashcat on the server, each consisting of filename to download and file list to extract for each gpu brand and cpu type and a minimal driver version to work. Upon starting, the client detects its driver version and sends it to the server, which decides if there is newer version to download.
That way, agents with up2date drivers will download new versions of hashcat while the old ones will run the older ones suitable for their older drivers.
