While you??™re in there, make sure you set the Share Permissions for the folder to Full
Control so that any computer (or render node) can read from and write to the LightWave
folder. See Figure 15.28.
Figure 15.28 When accessed, you??™ll find the Share Permissions dialog box.
Now if you browse your Windows network, you should be able to see the folder you??™ve just
shared (see Figure 15.29).
Figure 15.29 After you set up the folders for sharing, you can view them.
Setting Up the Master Computer
Now that all the folders are in place and are accessible across the network, we can begin
to set up the computers.
Setting up the master is a little more involved than setting up render nodes because this
computer has the main LightWave installation on it, which means it??™s the computer that
is normally used for editing scenes, creating objects and texture maps, and so on.
As mentioned earlier, LightWave uses config files to determine where certain things are.
The pathnames to these items are local to the computer they reside on.
