Yes if they are on the same network.

- Is there any tutorial for distributed rendering with corona?

Have not seen but there is a lot of explanation here on the forum

-Do I have to make the connection with backburner?

You don't have to corona will do it itself just make shure that the dr server is runing on the slave PC and Slave pc have acses to the folder (network drive) you are using for the rendering.

PS - don't forget to swith regular file locations to UNC file locations in the asset tracking section fo 3dsMAX

After one million tries I can't resolve this matter...I made the connection I find the slave pc its faster about 25%, I made a network drive I can access it from slave  but I have problem with the asset tracking... it cant find the textures, I made the change to UNC but still can't find the textures.... Anyone with same problem?
Thank's!!
