The problem with network rendering to the PAR is that frames are rendered in
random order. All you need to do is have the PAR installed in any workstation
and have a process that will collect the images as they are being rendered and
lay them in an orderly fashion to the PAR drive. I've written such tool. It's
called NDUMP and it runs as an IXP in your video post queue. Once frames are
transferred from your Novell server to the PAR drive, they can be optionally
deleted to save the space.
Now the question is how to get NDUMP. Pyros Partnership is the distributor but
they've transferred the sales to another group. Try giving them a call and let
me know how it goes.
