When I render a scene with dr enabled it works fine if I render from within max, but if I send the job to the back burner queue it still renders on all machines, but the nodes aren't sending data back to the master. On the render progress window dr shows 0 updates and 0 passes from all nodes.
I've checked the corona log on the nodes and it shows that the nodes are rendering the prepass followed by pass 2 over and over again.
The steps to recreate are:
Open batch render in 3ds max,
Create a job
Submit to net render
On net render screen connect to back burner manager on the local machine
Choose the local machine as the server also (checking use selected server only)
check enable rendered frame window.
strip rendering is de-selected.
Submit.
Everything renders fine, it's just slow as the nodes are rendering but not contributing.
- backburner render time 7:07 80 passes (dr enabled)
- max locally same scene and render settings, render time 7:07, 180 passes
It's not a network error, and backburner works fine with mental ray dr. It's also not scene releated as it happens on all scenes.

Does anyone know how to resolve this?
