Thanks, but I found out what part of my problem was.  In windows, the path to 
plink.exe had to be in quotes.

Do you mean the Windows 10 systems are locked down, or the remote servers?

ParaView is just trying to open a socket connection over TCP/IP when you 
connect to a remote server. I'm not sure what process cannot start.

Perhaps the locked down systems have ports blocked? ParaView uses port
11111 by default to connect to a remote server. Perhaps that is blocked?
