This was all gleaned by trial and error]: Why don't you take the easy way ? There's a RenderManager.app in /NextDeveloper/Demos. Use as follows: - login at the host you want to make a render host - start up RenderManager, a list with all currently known servers appears - 'localhost' should be selected, now click on 'Configure' button - click on 'Public' in Configure Server panel - click on 'Where' if you want to change the NetInfo domain to be served (warning: bug in that selection panel, cancel doesn't work, choose right one) - change 'Note' field if desired In short: it's straight forward, similar to printer management Detlev -- Detlev Droege | droege@infko.uni-koblenz.de Universitaet Koblenz, | (NeXTmail ok) Institut fuer Informatik | Voice: +49 261 9119-421 Rheinau 3-4, D-5400 Koblenz, Germany | Fax: +49 261 9119-499
