CGTalk - Hair cache question

I have a sim that uses both cloth and hair dynamics. I have saved the cache file for both so I can (in theory) use NET to render them out. When I save the cloth cache--it generates a .cac file--which Im sure c4d will know what to do with.

However when I save a hair dyn. cache, thwere is no file extension. Perhaps these cache files are not meant for distrubuted rendering (like illum files, etc are) but are just for loading into proj files? I just want to make sure that this renders correct--and since the hair dyamics are dependent on the cloth dynamics--want to be sure that the NET will render the dynamics in the right order (cloth first then hair)

Thanks

For cloth and hair the cache files are for manually loading back in only.
