I have created a small render farm (a group of computers which can render 3D scenes/animations together and thus faster than an individual machine), consisting of my laptop and a desktop pc using Farmerjoe.

First I edited the config file, setting values that matched my system. I left the port through which 'slaves' connect the default value. I think it would be wise to unblock it if there is a firewall on the host. the IP adress of the host g

It told me to go to it's hardware-update dot com website where I could click BIOS update to presumably get a list of sponsored links by google or something similar. What I actually got was nothing because Adblock Plus blocks all crap including such lowly tactics only used by Microsoft and other money-making 4$$|
