I had a similar experience yesterday (HD version), Houdini failing to connect despite the firewall being set up correctly. Re-installing Houdini restored connection to the server and all was well again.
Your first assumption is correct - there are no limits to the number of renders you can make in Apprentice - it's just limited functionality.

A quick solution to my own issue in case some lonely traveller finds this…
The problem was Windows Update guffing up Desktop Manager… cleaning out the drivers and re-installing them restored the nVidia Desktop Manager and fixed the problem.
(Note this probably only applies to Quadro drivers in Win7, as AFAIK Win7 GeForce drivers no longer come with Desktop Manager)

Anyone know how to fix this this issue in Windows 7? (pop-ups appearing on Primary display)
nView's controlling 2 displays, both output from an NVidia FX 3800… only just started using Win7 so I expect I'm missing something obvious?
Cheers

Looking at the most recent Mac & Linux posts, I'm going to hazard a wild guess that there's probably a general network or build issue, as no-one's md5 seems correct?

If you go to the downloads page and Login (option will be bottom-left), you'll get the page shown by protozoan… i.e. from here:

Hi,
I'm having some trouble downloading Houdini-10.0.595-win32-vc8
I'm getting a DOS error, “Program too big to fit in memory”.
The file's md5 doesn't match the one on the downloads page. Opening the exe in UltraEdit, there's a whole page worth of html right at the start, which looks like it's from the download page… I've re-downloading three times hasn't fixed the problem, and I get a different md5 every time. I'd not rule out a bad connection, except for the html, which looks a little out of place.
I did find an old (2007) post along similar lines… http://www.sidefx.com/index.php?option=com_forum&Itemid=172&page=viewtopic&p=43538&sid=ab7debe4b3873052a4edb755216f10b3 [sidefx.com] … where at the end, there's mention of stripping text from the download (different text in mine, i.e. a lot…)
Any ideas appreciated…
Cheers,
AT
