  • PC id - Render Slave

    Hi Andrey,

    Hope you are fine !

    We have an issue with two of our computers.

    Each computer have a different name but in the render slave they have the same PC id.
    So in the "Network" menu from 3dmax we just have the possibility to select one of those computers.

    How can we change those PC id?

    Thanks in advance

        Interesting. Did you install windows on each PC separately or via disk coping?

          Our supplier did a disk coping but after the installation he run a script to change the name of the computer. Do you think it might be the problem? because he made all our computers and it's the first time we have this bug.

            You have to check Registry Edtior path
            HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cryptography \MachineGuid
            If 2 PCs have the same value.

              Yeah disc cloning is not good for Network rendering ... i cloned 300 machines on my farm .. it was a hard lesson to learn !

                Well, I confirm i must reinstall windows to make it work, so don't clone your windows installation . Thanks to Karba and 3dnatty
