network preview broken?

For some reason when I try to preview a job that is rendering over the network. It will just randomly grab an old render and display. That is even with the mxi name changed and the image name changed. It just displays one at random. Which really sucks.

Or mximerge.exe will crash too. Happens occastionally.

I think mihai mentioned cleaning the temp files, but where are they all? And do I have to do that on the nodes as well? Or just the main computer?

Its a great feature I wish I could utilize.

Thanks

Cody

I just purged the temp files and tried again and it loaded up a random render.

Go to Manager, Monitor and each of the nodes and go to File>Purge temp files.

Yeah I tried the purge thing but still with no avail. Still just brings me a random rendering. Its kind of funny sometimes, but still frustrating. Is this not happening to anyone else?
