sorry to say, something gone wrong with my weekend network renders, I have to switch to old method, one computer render, for now !! 3 nodes render coud haved saved me time
Philip

Phillip,
make sure all of your nodes are using the same release of maxwell render. also try restarting all of the computers. sometimes that helps me.

Dan,
all the 4 computers have the the same, maxwell recent ver, I have restarted all 4 computers, all nework cables cleaned, running network manager from a different
computer, few jobs added & running will let you know the result soon
Philip

Philip, just in case you're unaware of it another emergency option if you have enough full Maxwell render licences is to render the scene on multiple computers entering different cpu id's and then merging all the renders together after to achieve a higher SL.

I overlooked this method, I will try
Thanks,
Philip
