hi, I am having a problem with running povray from a seconf pc via nfs.
I have linked my /usr/lb/povray-3.5 from one machine to the actuall
directory on the other machine, and done the same for the directory that
I am workingfrom,
So from a terminal I can do "less /usr/local/Rendering/some_pov_files" on
both machines and it works/.
same for the /usr/lib/includes.
yet running povray from the lnked machine it tells me it cant open any
include files like colors.inc etc.
Yet as the user i can read them but povray cant
Any clues?

Yes, what does your local ~/.povrayrc gives as library path ?

it list /usr/lib/povray-3.5 and /usr/lib/povray-3.5/includes
This is the same on both machines,
/usr/lib/povray-3.5 on one machine is a link via nfs to the
/usr/lib/povray-3.5 on theother machine. Readble as normal users.

What happens if you try rendering a short scene that dowsn't require
include files?
camera{
location <0,0,-13>
look_at <0,0,0>
}
box{
<-1,-1,-1>,<1,1,1>
pigment{color rgb <1,0.5,0.5>}
rotate<45,45,45>
translate x*-5
}
sphere{0,1
translate x*4
pigment{color rgb <0.5,1,1>}
}
light_source{<-40,30,-30>,1}
light_source{<40,-10,-10>,1}

Works fine, (your example had a few extra '}' in it for some reason)

Strange did you post it into an old scene or create a new POV file?
If it now renders fine without include files then I'd suggest that you
have a permission problem with the include files, make those directories
and files world readable.
Beware I had an include problem that looked like something different but
it turned out that I had entries like:
Library_Path=/usr/local/lib/povray31 ;; (+Ldir)
Library_Path=/usr/local/lib/povray31/include
Library_Path=/usr/local/lib/povray-3.5/include
Library_Path=/home/sjlen/pov
When I commented out the 3.1 library paths then the problem went away.
This issue is probably addressed in the docs I had't got as far as
checking when I found the solution.

A new file.

Yes, I had thought that but Ican do less
/usr/lib/povray-3.5/include/colors.inc without a problem.

Yes. Iencountered that problem on the main machine some time ago. What I
am trying to do isget a basic two machine render farm (or farmlet I guess
;-) goingwithout needing to copy changes to each machine but I can'teven
get a second one going. Sad.

Why wontit read the ini file commands on one machine but it will on the
other. They are the same file. not just copies.

But when you're logged into a different machine your home directory is
different so it'll be using a different .rc file try consolidating your
account so that you have one login and one home direcotry or a common
home directory.

I have taken care of that, they are different users, but useing identical
rc files.
I am worndering if it's something about povray not following links maybe?
I removed the /usr/lib/povray-3.5 link (that linked tothe same
ontheoriginal machine via nfs) and straight copied the directory over.
Now it works. What I wantto do is save having multiple copies of files,
that way I know each machineis rendering from the same data. While it
works with my own files one day I imagine there will be a change to the
standard includes andI'll have toremeber to copy them to each machine.
