Hi Derek, Easy! Really.... we do that all the time. The other systems just run the service manager (I like to run it in debug so I can see it). The display/audio system runs the client and you add the other systems in the node manager and configure the services that way.
What I like to do though: I bring up the client on each machine and test the services I want to run on the system as if they were a single node. Then I bring up the service manager and leave it running - I usually put it in the startup so on bootup they're good to go. Remember to not let them sleep (energy manager).... You can email me directly if you have problems. On windows 7 the only big issue has been if the multicast beacon is enabled on the client causes the client to crash. Questions if you need more details, let me know. -John Q. -- John I.

Is there any documentation on how to setup a multi-system node on Windows? I am running 3 windows 7 64bit systems (display/audio, capture, instructor/VPC) and am not having any luck in getting them all connected as I understand that they should. Currently I have to join each system to the venue and run the individual services on each. Any guidance given would be greatly appreciated.
