Hi Guys,
i recently acquired houdini Indie and very happy with it.
Im trying to set up a farm of 4 pc's. All 4 have Windows 8.1 64 on it.
1 workstation (server and client)
3 farm pc's (client)
1 2TB NAS for shared folder (can this work in small farm setup?)
Everything is linked to a 5 port switch.
I put hqserver on my main workstation, and it only see's itself in hqueue web interface, no other clients. the other machines in the Hclient log files read:
“no connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it”
any suggestions? I installed all server and client stuff with default settings so i didn't customize the ports and names
i tried disabling as many firewall / defender / security centre stuff as i could but still no go.
Or should i just install linux on the client machines. I would still like to use windows on my main workstation but i dont mind dropping linux on the farm pc's if it will mean Hqueue will work.
