[urgent] distributed rendering spawner AMONG far-away PCs

[jamesjeong]

Hi.

Me and my team members are trying to connect several PCs to utilize the Distributed Rendering Spawner, which is known as one of the most fancy way to render images.

 

But unfortunately, we bumped into a connecting problem. (though it proved not to be an actual problem, it seems like a problem currently to me.)

 

The point is that,

1. My PC is located in my house over 10km away from my office, where the other PCs are located.

 

2. I checked my IP and it was 192.168.1.7.

 

3. And my colleague put my IP information in the main PC (also located in the office) and tried to start distributed rendering spawner.

 

4. But the faiilure msg was as below.

 

Could not connect to host 192.168.1.7

:

 

5. I think this was because of the IP allocation problem or Local Network issue, that is to say,

the main PC now cannot find my computer using this IP.

 

6. Is Distributed Rendering Spawner only available between PCs in the same LAN?

 

7. Or, What can be the solution for this matter ?

 

Sorry for my poor English and your any response or reply would be highly welcomed to me and my team.

 

Best regards,
