### The render-agent itself cannot be started over the network. YOU start it
"by hand". The render-agent starts however the rendering process
automatically.
### think of the Render-Agent as your employee ...
### The renderagent is the only file you need to transfer to the client PC.
It has 25 kb, it does not make any registry-entires or changes in the
file-system outside
### its own directory or outside its COM-Folder. It does not connect to the
internet. It connects however to its COM Folder.

> Does this mean it is legal and you have full rights to distribute binaries
?
### I have just programmed it myself. So why not ?

> Would it be possible to publish source files to compile it? Using it on
important machines could be dangerous so I prefer compile it myself.
### It is written in Powerbasic 7.0 (see www.Powerbasic.com ). The
source-code may be shared at a later time after it is cleaned up, then for
all interested people.
### The whole project is a few days old now, and I am happy that it runs as
I wanted.
###
### To be safe that there is no hack inside, just put a personal firewall on
your PC, or try the program with a registry monitor.
### As said it will not try to connect anywhere else other then in its own
folder or in the COM Folder.
### It doesn not write anything in the registry.
### I don't distribute hacks I guess there are other organizations in USA
who are more intrested in doing that. :-)

### I see one option: If there is official interest from the POV-Ray Team I
would give them the source code for doing changes and then including it in
the windows-package.
### However that does not change the fact that the thing is programmed in
Powerbasic and (picture-pender) in Visual Basic.

### But then I need to know who is who ... :-)

> You can send request to Ken to add link to pov-links collection.
### Hall Ken, may I request your support to the best of your knowledge ?
