REMOVING DUPLICATE HASHES, WHAT IS THIS...?
#1
Exclamation 
hi bro,
I use cudaHashcat-v1.37 to recovery WPA password. I get a problem, when i run command line:
cudaHashcat -m 2500 -a 0 myhash mydict
it worked and very strong. But when i run cudaHashcat like a service of windows, and print result to a file, i got some text like this:

cudaHashcat v1.37 starting...

Removing duplicate hashes...
Comparing hashes with potfile entries...                                       
Structuring salts for cracking task...                             
Generating bitmap tables with 16 bits...

I google it, and I tried to use other versions (v 2.0, v 1.31), the result is not change. When I use hashcat(run like a service of windows) it worked.
My system: windows 8.1, Nvidia GeForce GTX 980, driver version: 9.18.13.4762, and cuda tool.
What 's the matter, and what should i do?
Thank you so much!

That is just some information. It unique you hash file the checks the pot for the same hash. The other stuff is just information on what it is doing. You don't really need to worry about it.
#3
thank you for your answer, coolbry95. But, when that information display and cudahashcat stop, not work.
#4
Don't run it as a service and then paste the output into pastebin. Do not have any hash information or anything related to the wifi network in the paste. It is hard to say what is wrong based on what information you have provided.

If Don't run it as a service, which command line above, cudaHashcat run normally, I can recovery my long and hard wifi password, cudaHashcat 's very strong tool. But it only has problem when i run cudaHashcat as a service. This is result when i don't run as a service:

cudaHashcat v1.37 starting...

Lies!

The cat prints some information before it runs an attack on hash(es), and if you don't want to see this information, you can always add a "--quiet" flag.

oh no, I want run cudaHashcat as a service of windows, but it only display this information and stop?

Code:

Session.Name...: cudaHashcat
Status.........: Cracked
Input.Mode.....: Mask ($a$a$a$a$a$a$a$a$a$a)

So cudaHashcat has nothing to do so it exits. Have you tried removing the password from the pot file and seeing how it behaves then?

There seems to be only one hash to recover in your hash file, apparently it has been recovered by you in a previous execution of hashcat, and now is stored in the oclHashcat.pot file for future reference in the main oclHashcat directory. You can try to check that file and see if it's there.

Can I ask why you would want to run hashcat as a windows service instead of just running it from the command line?

$10 says he's trying to build a botnet with malware that wraps oclHashcat. But it's obvious he's just a script kiddie who has no idea how the program works, so thankfully he'll likely fail.
