It is real simple. The network isn't going to speed things up but the two
computers are. There is a pvm patch for pov but that isn't really worth it
for two computers.
Just render the scene split up ie : +s1 +e240 on one comp. and +s241 +e480 on
the other. Then there are a couple of proggies that can put them back
together. TGAglue comes to mind I know there are others but I can't think of
them right now.
Tgaglue used to be on the ftp.povray site but I'm not sure. Hope this helps.
