Anyone no how to set this up?  I was going to work on a music video, and thought I'd pan some of the work load off on my lap top.  I've searched the Blender docs but have been unable to find it.  I'm sure I saw this listed as a Blender feature somewhere.

If you don't have time to learn to setup one of the network rendering systems you can just use the command line version of Blender to render a few frames on each computer and manually queue up more when each computer is done.

If you have a little money you should use this service:

Or if you have time you an learn to setup one of these systems:

Thanks for the info.  I looked back and apparently I was mistake, it's not a built in feature.  Bryce has an included app for rendering over a network which I've used before. 

I'll try to set one up.

You're welcome. Just in case someone else wants to try the quick and easy way:

I used this type of command line before:

blender -b file.blend -o "C:RENDERSMOVIENAME" -F JPEG -s 001 -e 050 -a -x 1<br></br><br></br>and on the second computer:<br></br><br></br>blender -b file.blend -o "C:RENDERSMOVIENAME" -F JPEG -s 051 -e 100 -a -x 1<br></br><br></br>and so on depending on how many computers you have. <br></br>When one finishes just repeat the command with different frame numbers. <br></br>If one computer is slow you can just kill the process, re-assign the leftover frames and take whatever frames it has already done.

I know this is an old thread, but I've started using a Blender version called verse-blender. It's listed on Blender.org in the Download section. Under Scene < ANIM, click Render Daemon. There's also a script called Farmerjoe that will also give net render capability. You'd have to do a web search for it, though.
