OK - I set up my little Render Farm - right now I only have two "Cows" on the farm, and it seems to be working fine.  One PC is faster than the other, so it processes more of the tiles then the other, but I assumed that would happen.  I plan to add a third machine in the next few months, but I have a question...  As I add more Cows, which are really just other CPUs, if they don't have monitors hooked up to them, how can I tell what they're doing??  That's probably a dumb question but  after I boot these machines, other then the status monitor inside the Vue render window I can't see the what these machines are doing. Does that make any sense??

One other thing,  when I click "SHOW" for the Render Cow status, it always says "Waiting for new job", even when I'm rendering and can see that machine is being used.  Not sure what that means.

Anyway, thanks for any additional info you can share on this!
