Hi folks,

does anyone know a sync tool for the netrender plugin folder? I was hoping that i could sync all netrender plugin folders on all clients with one main folder on a server. Any ideas?

Why not use one netrender installation for all computers?
If you set the network permissions right you can run one netrender on all rendernodes so you have only one plugin folder;)

If you dont want to alter your permissions in os you can use any of the free tools available, rsync on osx or any sync app on win, microsoft offers a free one, rsync can also be used on win( rsync is best but a bit more complicated to setup)

GoodSync, not really free but pretty comfortable to use.

Thanks for the answers, the one netrender-for-all installation seems best to me!
Never thought about that way!

only drawback is you have to set the OS permissions to allow the exe to start from server disk, (might be risky in certain environments, so do only if you know what you are doing)
