Still waiting for news on latest. Love me some prt!!!
I’ve been very busy–hoping to get to this over the weekend.

It should be all in the install guide/walk through.
Sorry I couldn’t find where you find your slave ports
I will have to assume that means the SSH port, which is usually 22. Wnielson?

I am doing more than one slave, would that be for every slave?

Yes, SSH runs on port 22 by default.
Thanks again for your help…
When I try to restart the NFS server should I get anything back in my terminal? I used “sudo service nfs-kernel-server restart” and it didn’t return anything.

Well, if the service didn’t exist, you would have gotten an output like:
nfs-kernel-server: unrecognized service
I still wasn’t receiving anything back from trying to restart the nfs so I pressed forward. Now I am getting the following when adding a user on the slave…
plexnode1@plexnode1-Macmini:/$ sudo addgroup --gid 112 plex
addgroup: The GID `112’ is already in use.
plexnode1@plexnode1-Macmini:/$ sudo adduser --uid 105 --gid 112 plex --home /var/lib/plexmediaserver --no-create-home
Warning: The home dir /var/lib/plexmediaserver you specified can’t be accessed: No such file or directory
adduser: The UID 105 is already in use.
plexnode1@plexnode1-Macmini:/$
Never mind… I’m dumb.
Ok… now I am getting this output when I try to mount the nfs…
plexnode1@plexnode1-Macmini:/$ sudo mount -a
mount.nfs: mounting 192.168.0.2:/opt/plex/tmp failed, reason given by server: No such file or directory
mount.nfs: mounting 192.168.0.2:/mnt/media failed, reason given by server: No such file or directory
plexnode1@plexnode1-Macmini:/$
Did you create the directories before trying to mount them? You have to have them existing first, so mkdir /opt/plex/tmp and mkdir /mnt/media
I had to exclude “/” at the beginning of the directories to get them to add, but got hem added.
But now I cannot connect to the slave(s) when I try I keep getting this back…
plex@plexmaster-Macmini:/home/plexmaster$ ssh plex@192.168.0.16
ssh: connect to host 192.168.0.16 port 22: Connection refused
Do I need to install the ssh server software on all the computers, I didn’t see instructions for that?
Yeah, all boxes have to have SSH server running.Most the ubuntu builds come with that loaded I think, if not well, it’s pretty easy and there are plenty of guides out there for that one, but basically sudo apt-get install openssh-server
One last question… I hope. How do I see the nodes transcoding?
You would do a su plex
Then prt sessions
It will show you what’s on each slave at that moment. You can also try loading htop and doing a htop -u plex if you are into that kind of thing on each individual host.
Is there a Windows version as I run 2 servers both using Windows. I did search but i didnt find anything really stating yes or no.
I highly doubt there is, yet. Bash was ported over to Windows recently, so there is a chance prt could be ported, but I would not count on that being anytime soon.
Will this work on Freebsd? and if you need a test box, just send me messege! i will hook you UP! 
if this will work on Freebsd i will donate! Becouse i´m a BSD FAN BOY!!
It should work on any nix build, though it is developed for ubuntu. I tried it on SUSE and failed, but that might have been because SUSE security is so crazy different. Try it out, not like there’s any risk.
Any update on prt working with latest build yet?
