Do the computers see each other on your network with other programs?

Check the basics Install carrara on main Install nodes on other computers w/ proper plugins Make sure the port 1 matches Check batch queue/network rendering Make sure you don't have a firewall blocking the communication

No need to think outside the box....
    Just make it invisible.

Just to emphasize ren_mem's message, you have to render in the batch queue AND have the switch checked to render on the network. -Kix
