Slave machine port setup
On the slave machine, port number 7310 is set by default. This works well in
the majority of cases and you won’t need to change the port number.
If you want to change the port number that mental ray satellite uses to a value
other than 7310, you must edit the services file. The port value would be
determined by your network administrator (a free TCP/IP port).
To change the port number (Windows, Linux)
1 Edit the services file with a text editor.
The services file is located at:
■ (Windows XP) C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\services
■ (Linux) /etc/services
2 Change the number in the following line (here, 7310) to the desired port
number:
mi-raysat2010 7310/tcp
To change the port number (Mac OS X 10.4, Tiger)
1 Log in as superuser (sudo -s).
2 Open the file /etc/services using your preferred text editor.
3 Edit the line: mi-raysat2010 7310/tcp.
4 Save the file.
5 From the Finder menu, select Go > Applications and then double-click
the Utilities folder.
6 Double-click the NetInfo Manager icon.
7 Under the Services directory of the NetInfo database, find and select the
appropriate service (mental ray Satellite 3.7.53 for Maya 2010).
8 Click the lock icon at the bottom of the panel and then enter your
administrator user name and password. This allows you to unlock the
NetInfo database and make changes.
