I finally got jtr compiled with opencl (thanks Solar!) and I now have one running copy on ec2 and one running copy on a laptop with a decent card in it. At this point I'd like to start combining all of the machines I have with video cards to try and attack this hash, and I have a few questions: 1) last time I tried this, it was an endeavor in getting mpich setup, using mpirun and all that - is that still the same, or does jtr now have some sort of built-in functionality to do distribution? is there a best-practice here? 2) can you distribute between different cards/technologies? i.e. some hosts with just cpu, some hosts with nvidia and other hosts with amd cards? or does everything have to be completely uniform? 3) is there windows support for cuda/opencl yet? It would be amazing to have a cracking pool that's cross platform. Thanks in advance! -Dan
