Have you tried starting both master and slave on the same computer, does that work?
Did you allow the connection in the firewall? (on Windows 7 there's a popup window asking for permission, don't know how it is on Windows 10)

I need to see the end of the master log (lower text box). You seem to have an ongoing rendering, why you say it doesn't work ? Do you get an error ?

Yes there is a pop up window and i allow connection in firewall. I also tried both master and slave on the same computer and it doesn't work.

You have to post details of how it doesn't work.

The output of your node is strange, it looks frozen half way loading the scene. Can you post the .bcf somewhere so I can try it :?:

Or just repeat the test with a simple scene (i.e. a cube) just to check if it works ?

I can also reproduce it here with a completely unrelated scene.
I tried pressing the "Force Film Download"/"Force Film Merge" buttons, but they only print the messages you see in the screenshot to the log.
