Hashtopus - distributed solution

[Matthijz98]

MD5
On my 970 hashtopus also shows 7215.76 MH/s and the bechmark was +/- 10000 MH/s

My guess is that there is no issue at all, benchmark represents the fastest speed possible, it's not the speed you'll get all the time, it depends on a bunch of factors like attack mode or keyspace, basically if you put enough work on the gpu or not.

I hear lot of ppl are experiencing issues with Ubuntu 14.04. I suspect this is the nonstandard separator
I am using (it's ASCII code 1, \x01 if you wish), and I think it might have something to do with utf-8
based terminal which interprets the \x01 as a beginning of multibyte character.

Unfortunately I don't have Ubuntu installed anywhere and I don't have time to play with it, but it
might be a good starting point for some of Linux gurus here to figure it out. I think this will not
be fixed in hashtopus per se but rather using some command before launching hashtopus agent
to switch the console to non-utf8 mode.

Hello, curlyboi

I have an issue with hashtopus.exe 0.9.3 agent under live USB stick Debian - SMOS 1.3 mining distributive.
It's the server with 7 x R9 280x ATI Videos

==========
root@smos-1:~# mono hashtopus.exe debug
Hashtopus 0.9.3
Debug mode on.
lspci
uname -n

after investigation I found what blkid output a little different then my CentOS and does not contains string of "/" partition.

What could you recommend?

Has anyone run hastopus.exe as a service and had it run properly ? (as in oclHashcat can use the GPU)


I have some computers that I RDP into where I would like hashtopus.exe/oclHashcat to use the GPU (Nvidia/AMD) while I am using the system via RDP.
I know if I run hashtopus.exe while under RDP  that oclHashcat can't find the GPU.

Could also be useful where machines are started not logged in. As it's a service hashtopus will be cracking passwords without needing to log the machine in.
I have got it running as a service but oclHashcat then can't find the Nvidia GPU.
e.g."ERROR: No NVidia compatible platform found"


My alternative is to VNC into those computers so that hashtopus.exe/oclHashcat works (VNC is slow) but hope someone may have a better way.

I have an old laptop with Windows 7 as a home server.
I have configured Windows to auto-logon one specific account. If I RDP
to that session remotely, hashtopus works there since the session was opened
as a normal desktop session.

But when I logout and then login via RDP, the session is opened as remote
and hashtopus doesn't work anymore.

I think if you were to use mstsc.exe /admin (or something like that, don't remember)
then it might work - you need to terminal to the zero session, the desktop one.

You are using obsolete version of hashtopus. Upgrade to the new one.

How to create a task so you can use a mask?
If I write in the problem as he wrote in the cmd console or App.HashcatGUI then I have an error when receiving the job.
Example: -a 3 -m 300 # HL # "C: \ Users \ home \ mask \ newdic23.hcmask"


If I upload a file mask, command to task -a 3 #HL# newdic23.hcmask
then writes this error:

Loading task...assigned to 14, hashlist 2 (continue)
File newdic23.hcmask already exists.
Hashlist already exists.
Requesting chunk...keyspace measuring required
Measuring keyspace...ERROR: --keyspace is not supported with --increment or mask

How to create a task so you can use a mask?

Just watch the instructional video at the post #1.
You don't use absolute paths. You should upload the file to hashtopus
admin and then reference it in your task.

HOWEVER!!
You cannot use hcmask files in distributed attacks (oclHashcat limitation)
so the effort here is useless.

If you want to crack multiple masks, you should create separate tasks for that.
