Cluster Help

Hi

We have just recently purchased Vizard Enterprise and are currently setting it up to work on our simulation centre which has one master PC and three image generators on a LAN to project onto a large screen. The cluster master and client utilities seem to be working fine. The master finds each of the clients through the vizard utility and is pinging them with no problem. We have the files and resources we want to run on a shared network drive so all the clients and the master can access this. As a test we amended a fairly simple file from the vizard examples as per the cluster section in the manual, including the pushmask and popmask to Clients1 - 4.

However, when we try and run a simulation we get the following error messages:

On the master PC we get the following error in the Vizard console:
**NOTIFY: Launching in cluster master mode. Waiting for 3 client(s) to connect.
**ERROR: VizMultiCastTCP::init( ) failed to connect to following clients:
Image-Gen-1
**ERROR: VizMultiCastTCP::init( ) failed to connect to following clients:
Image-Gen-2
**ERROR: VizMultiCastTCP::init( ) failed to connect to following clients:
Image-Gen-3
**ERROR: Failed to establish connection with all clients
Loading File: male.cfg
**Load Time: 0.38 seconds

On each of the client PC we get the following in the console window:
** Received ping from VR-MASTER
** Received ping from VR-MASTER
** Received ping from VR-MASTER
** Launching Y:\motions1.py from VR-MASTER
************************************************** ****************************
** Loading motions1.py
************************************************** ****************************
** NOTIFY: Launching in cluster client mode with ID 2
** ERROR: VizReceiveTCP::init() failed to accept connection (WSAEWOULDBLOCK)
** ERROR: Failed to establish connection with master

Not sure if anyone can help with this one, but would really appreciate any advice as we're still pretty new to Vizard.

Many thanks
