Hi Sebastien,
Thanks - though I've already tried all these things. With both service
name and port number - though there'd be no issue there anyway as all
these machine were cloned from the same disk image. There's no
firewall software on any machine on the lan.
Another thing I noticed is that even with the environment variable set
it does not look where the environment variable says to to find the
.ray3hosts file. I think it ended up getting it directly from
~/.ray3hosts even though this wasn't specified anywhere. I even tried
coding an absolute path rather than one using other environment
variables and that still didn't force it to read the file I wanted it
to. I'm not even certain it was reading it from XSI as well as ray3.
Cheers,
Alan.

the port specified on the master, which can be different for the port used on
the slave.

satellite service instead of the Mental Ray service. When you install XSI you
have the choice during the install to install mi-raysatxsi_4.2 and/or mi
-ray3xsi_4.2. Please not the correct port for the satellite service, because you
will need to specify it in the .ray3hosts. You CAN'T test satellite by opening
a command prompt and typing ray3. Ray3 will use MR stand Alone licenses.
Satellites will use the licenses any product (Advanced, essential and batch)
these licenses will permit 4 tcp/ip connection for satellites.
