MPI is supported, known good and produce no dupes. When there are
changes, I use to test it like this:
$ ../run/john -stdout -inc | head -10000 | shuf | ../run/pass_gen.pl
rawmd5 > testfile
$ mpiexec -np 8 ../run/john -inc -ses:test -pot:test.pot -fo:raw-md5
testfile
(After it stops finding stuff, do a "pkill -USR1 mpiexec" and then
ctrl-c the session).
This cracks all 10,000 passwords with no duplicates. I just tried this
now, no problems here.
The most common mistake people do is they actually do not run an MPI
build when they think they do, but then all cracked passwords should be
duped by all nodes, and this does not seem to be the case here. Unless
*some* of your nodes are running a non-mpi binary (provided you actually
run mpi across several different machines).
Not sure what else could be going on. Check the log file!
The output of "mpiexec -np 8 ../run/john -status" might give a clue. For
my test session above, it looks like this:
$ mpiexec -np 8 ../run/john -status:test

BTW you could change "Save = 600" in john.conf to something less, I use 60.
