You are going to have to render a sequence of images rather than your standard AVI file. Make a network share on your manager computer and have a network drive referenced WITH IDENTICAL DRIVE LETTERS on each "slave." What happens is the backburner is sent a job and it renders it exactly as if it was on the computer that the render job is created from. So unless all your textures are on identical network shares, you will run into errors too. Here's a setup

Manager:
Runs manager.exe, server.exe, monitor.exe
Network Share e:\Renders\ as Renders

Slave
Runs server.exe
Network Drive r:\ \\server\renders

Development
Runs (optionally) server.exe, monitor.exe
Network Drive r:\ \\server\renders
Sets output to a spot on R:\ and net render is checked.

Any other questions, I'd be glad to help.
