you can check with Alias support, if you have it. Typically when it's actively refused it means there's a firewall issue. You may want to try opening that port on your firewall. As for slaves dying.. I do have had that problem and I think I traced it to old/poor drivers on my 3 Boxx Renderboxxes. I'm in the process of getting the new drivers installed. You may want to look at the Event Viewer > System on all of your render boxes to determine what the issue is. That's where I found out my network card was being 'disconnected' then activated again.

Goodness me, my first thought was," Huh, Bobba Fett's ship DIED?" :D

Back to the question, no I've got no clue... Really sorry :(
