Ref models are fine with ICE Deformers. You just need to ensure that
the 'Get Data' nodes are using 'this_model' and / or 'self' instead of
the full name. Since when you import a ref model it will most likely
change the top model name and your ICE deformations will crap out.
Can you open the rig on one of the farm machines and VNC / remote in
and see if it's functioning and check if the ICE Trees are evaluating
properly?

Are refmodels a bit buggy ?

I have a weird problem, which might have a simple fix, but I
don't know what.
I have a mesh which I deform with Turbulize Mesh in a non
simulated ICE tree. It works fine in the viewport and the
renderregion, plus when rendering on my workstation. However
when I render on the farm (RoyalRender) the ICE deformation is
lost. I have inserted a Log Values node to see if it is ICE
optimization causing this, but same, same, no deformation. I
guess I can cache the deformation and then it should render
fine, but I wonder what might be the issue here. I see no
problems in the render logs.
Softimage 2013 SP1, no installation changes recently.
