Delete Branch "%!s(<nil>)"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
%%%== PROBLEM ==
When starting master or slave service in the GUI, the software simply starts rendering (and saving) blank frames. I see no evidence of network communication ("Network Render" is the selected render engine.)
Also tried on the command line. Each of the following gave the same result (render and save blank frames):
$ blender -b master.blend -a
$ blender -b master.blend -E NET_RENDER -a
$ blender -b slave.blend -a
The following does appear to put a slave into listening mode, but I can't confirm it because I can't get a master running:
$ blender -b slave.blend -E NET_RENDER -a
I have attached the master.blend and slave.blend files.
Thanks!

DEV PRAISE
Thanks for making Blender. You make me proud to be a monthly contributor to the development fund!
Changed status to: 'Open'
%%%Oops -- wrong master.blend. I had tried limiting the start and end frames to 0 and 0, to see if that changed anything. Here's the one that renders blank frames 1-1000, as described.
Thanks,
%%%
%%%I ran into something like this myself. My workaround was to save the default scene with the "Network Rendering" add-on turned on (it's off by default), then re-run the command line master and slave. See if that works.
%%%
%%%@kfred: Thanks, but I had already done this before I began testing (startup.blend is attached).%%%
%%%(Attaching startup.blend)%%%
%%%I'm not sure if a Master will work properly with a domain name in the address field.
Can you try with an IP address and see if that changes anything?
When running from the command line, were you getting any sort of error output in the console?
You can also run the master or slave like this:
blender -b master.blend -f 1
This prevents it from saving multiple blank frames on error (it will only do it once).
You only need to add -E NET_RENDER if that wasn't the selected render engine when the file was saved.
Martin%%%
%%%Changing the address didn't help.
Output looked like a normal command line render, but I was missing the error messages at the front (thanks for the -f 1 suggestion). Here's the error output fromt he command line:

%%%Fixed in revision 3018.
netrender didn't recursively create missing directory if you specified a path that didn't exist already. It also didn't expand user (~) and env vars which it does now.
Thanks for the report.%%%
