FREE MODE: slave shut down

I am testing deadline in a new network and try to install it as free mode with the two slaves available.
I have the repository installed in a NAS, but one of the slaves shut down just started.
I suspected the error could come from the repository folder privileges because in the slave folder there is no any folder for that slave, but I checked the permissions and all are ok.
Any idea?

Which OS is the problematic Slave running on?

I assume you mean the Slave shuts down right after you try to start it up? Either way, I would definitely check the Slave’s log file, there will probably be some hint as to why it’s not working properly. The logs on Windows 7 are located in “C:\ProgramData\Thinkbox\Deadline\logs” on the Slave machine. If you’re not on Windows 7, you can find the log folder by selecting ‘Explore Log Folder’ from the DeadlineLauncher menu; I don’t remember quite where they are off the top of my head. Once you find those on the slave in question, just open up the latest ‘deadlineslave’ log, and post the contents here so we can have a look at it.

Cheers,
