i recently upgaded to network rendering using 3ds3, 2 machines (p75 & p100), both use QEMM, plus PAR card. I use Netware Lite. When I attempt to render using the net queue option the systems will hang up before long and several attemps have to be made to finish the job. (i am writing TARGA's to local drives) even when network render to a single machine, that machine being the one with all the bitmaps, it still will hang after awhile. when i check the net render log file, no errors are indicated. i have set 3dsnet so it will record these errors. i am unable to exit slave mode as entire system locks up. anyone else have this problem. my dealer cannot help! thanx in advance!

Garry: Your problem may be in synchronizing your clocks. Do you re-synch your computer's clock at login? When you network render on one machine does it lockup if you do not connect or login that machine to the network? There is a helpful file in the library here "Confessions of a Network Renderer" which may have a few helpful tips. Bob
