I don't know if this has been fixed in v8 but in Houdini 7 (up to and including 7.0.412 on WinXP), TIFF compression will revert to the Adobe Deflate scheme even if you've chosen Uncompressed and saved out the .hip file…
It took me a while to trace the bug - rather annoying all those unreadable file type messages in Nuke!

PolyTrans/NuGraf reads and writes VRML files. It's a pretty robust implementation. You can import VRML into PolyT/NuG and export OBJ, which Houdini will read without difficulty; although I usually go the other way…
Good luck!

Three things come to mind:
1. If what you typed in the ROP is the same as what you typed in your forum message, there's a mistake: there should be no space after the comma!
2. I don't know about Houdini NC - multi-CPU rendering might be disabled. If it's enabled, then point no.1 applies.
3. Networking on Windows is a pain in the behind - if someone has a *reliable* way of avoiding such pitfalls as unseen textures or unrecognised remote volumes I'd love to hear it! As for me, I'm probably going to move over to Linux…
Hope this helps,
