Hy Brian! Thank you for ansering soon. My pitiable situation is as follows: We are a german ATC at Dortmund. We've got a network with 30 pentiums. Former we used WfW Network. When I was rendering only one comp run under WfW. The maps and process files all were located on that mashine. The file sharing worked well with share.exe. Probably file sharing is my problem in the new network configuration. We installed NT on all comps. We still need to run DOS for some Autodesk products. Therfore we've the ability to connecting the DOS mashines with the NT Server by loading the NT network drivers instead of the WfW drivers as done in former days. Theress no problem copying, reading or changing files from / to the server manualy. Small files (for example birdwalk.3ds) are also handled while network rendering. The problem occures when using bigger files with more maps. Then I always get a "error on writing project file", "error on reading project file" or a "error on writing *.tga file". I already tried changing the net comunication settings but without sucsess. I'd be very glad if you could help me, Thanks Markus.
