Hi,
Is it possible to test Network rendering with demo licenses?
Best regards,

macray, thanks, knew I should have checked the manual.
but HEY? how are we supposed to make sure this really work this time before we invest a lot of money on render nodes? We already payed for five nodes 1.7 + hardware but never got it to work (linux). I mean never.
We gave up on it and figured it would be better in 2.0, but now we can't even confirm that it is.

Good question - maybe you should ask around here if there are Linux guys that use it in a network. And if you find some from sweden you might go there and check yourselves - if they let you.

I guess. There are always so many parameters that can differ though, so the best things would to take it for a test run on the specific system,.
