xsi permanently
dropping the workgroup if it looses contact with the server
Just
search for the file:
\render_settings\xsi\Softimage\XSI_51\Data\Preferences\default.xsipref
Right-click and open the security/permission tab (use
advanced permissions if available)
Allow all users to
read that file, but not to change/write it.

im consistently amazed at how responsive holger is,
any of our
issues have been solved almost as fast as i can brew a cup of
coffee.
i personally cant imagine using any render management
software without the sequence checking tool he has implemented!
we have
fusion, aftereffects, and xsi all merrily coexisting on our farm
only
limitations i have encountered is 750 pass/job limitation.
xsi permanently
dropping the workgroup if it looses contact with the server (xsi does this
regardless of the rendering software used, still it would be nice if RR
overcame this)
and the graphical output leaves a little to be
desired.
note: we are not using the latest build yet, so some of these
may have been overcome.

it.
Ouch, that one was not fun for us. We had to back up to 5.0
until the 5.11 release.
But, I have to point out that the one man
development team that Holger is, he hammered out workarounds for us on a
moments notice to help us get as far around the problem as possible until
Soft released the bug fix. And I'm sure we are just one of his small
clients.
