Hi All,

My first post here at povray. I'm just getting into ray tracing and I have a
important question....

I need to setup a Grid for a research project (The Grid will have around 10
computers on it) and I need to know what Grid will support rendering
POV-Ray files in the linux environment?

I looked at the Condor-Project as a possiblility as it looks like there are
a few people who have rendered pov-ray stuff on there but I'm wondering
what you guys recommend? What do you use?

Am I right that with a "Grid" you mean something like a render farm, and 
not one instance of "The Grid" (distributed computing network developed 
by CERN)?

If so, take a look at these links:

- POV-Anywhere for rendering stills

- Internet Movie Project for rendering animations
