Make sure you use the proper Bryce Lightning with the Version of Bryce in use.
Example Bryce v6.x uses Bryce Lightning v2.0C which does not work with Bryce v5.0 or v5.5
Are you saying that you need to install Bryce Lightning on the client computers w/5.5? In 5.0 a machine with the full Bryce install would work ... Bryce Lightning was only needed if you were going to use a machine as a client without having a full Bryce install on it.
Also, I'm truly stumped as to why "Use Host to Render" was removed. Usually I'm going to do the bulk of my Bryce scene design on my most powerful computer, so then to have that machine sitting dormant while I do network rendering almost makes it a waste of time to use network rendering at all.
Thinking seriously of going back to Bryce 5.01 at this point ... Daz hasn't impressed me at all with their abilities as a software development house.

Has anyone been able to do network rendering with Bryce 5.5? I used to do this with my purchased Bryce 5.01, but ever since I installed the free 5.5 I haven't been able to get this to work. Also, the "Use Host to Render" option on the network rendering dialog is missing.
(Note: I had successfully used both full installed Bryce and Bryce Lightning for this before - I've been trying it with full installed copies of 5.5 thus far, with no success ... there's never any connectivity. And yes, I've turned off firewalls and/or made exceptions for Bryce 5.5, just as I successfully had done with Bryce 5.01.)
