Here's my problem, I have three computers on the network:
Server running Ubuntu server 16.04LTS
Desktop running Mint 18.1 and
Laptop running Windows 10
Loki picks up all three computers with their correct CPU and OS fine and the server runs fine as both Master and Grunt and produces output files perfectly, but both the desktop and the Laptop although it can connect to the Master and changes from idle to busy when the job is started they don't do much other than stay in "busy" and won't produce any output render.
I've tried all sorts of settings and even swapped roles as far as who is the Master and Grunt but the problem persists...whoever is Master and Grunt renders the frames fine is just the Grunt Only machines who don't do anything and stay on busy forever...also I have launched Blender via CL and it works fine with no issues.
Thanks for any pointers
