Andrew,

Thanks for the great information, but I'm still having a problem with
the "rendering host". I have a standalone NeXTstation color with
the hostname set as sapphire via hostmanager.app.

I can't get anything to render unless the hostname is localhost.
Even if I modify netinfo so that there is a renderer with a name
of sapphire. The only thing I haven't tried is setting the IP address
in hostmanager.app to 127.0.0.1, which would be the same as localhost
since I'm not connected to any net.

I addition when I use the 3D app in the demos directory (still working
on getting 3D_Reality transferred!) and try to print, it only prints
the black background and not the image (such as the airplane.rib
file in the examples directory).

I'd appreciate any light you could shed on this subject!

Thanks in advance,
--
