Stephen- We have been having mysterious conflicts between 3DS and Lantastic, as I has someone else on this forum. To be fair, Lantastic tried to reproduce the error and has been unable to, and we have been too busy to do controlled tests. We still use Lantastic constantly, but avoid accessing the disk on the rendering station while it is rendering. In the past, Gary has spoken highly of the tightness of his Novell Lite set-up. We looked at Novell Lite but went with Lantastic because (at the time) it seemed to have a better disk caching scheme, which would make a difference to you moving big image files over. I like Lantastic from a set-up and maintenance standpoint: it took very little time to get everyone used to it and administration is minimal. –Noah
