Does anyone know how to setup Mental Ray standalones to act as slaves to more applications at once (for example Max, Maya, XSI). It seems that every application demands a different deamon on a different port (Max wants rayserver.exe, Maya wants ray3_1maya4_5server.exe and XSI wants ray3xsi3_0server.exe). I can setup Mental Ray standalone to have support for all of them when rendering .mi files, but i can serve to only one application since i don't know how to make different deamons that will point to the same ray.exe for rendering.
I have read all the docs in the distributions and i have read "Rendering with Mental Ray" book, and i still cannot figure this out...
I guess someone must know, since installing multiple copies of the same mentalray version just to have different deamons for different applications seems silly...
Thanks in advance for your help!
