Strange, it's never done it for me and I've tried on a few different networks, anyone else played with lightning? I'd love to know if there's some tweak I could make to get it to behave a Yewston says, if not could be a suck it and see situation for all you potential users out-there. I've been using it mainly on a network of a 1.4G p4, twin 1G p3 server and a 600M pIII. and it waits for the 600M pIII to finish it's tile, it may be because I've always been using the slowest machine (my old lapdog) as the render manager though????
