WOW that was a pain!!  I'd better write down how to do this as quickly as possible before I forget.

In short:  I'm configuring a networked render farm for my computer lab at FAU, as well as, replicating the system at home.  Dr Queue, of course, will be the render manager of choice.  I am, after all, "the open source guy".  I'm primarily working in a Linux/Mac environment. So, file sharing will be done with NFS at this point.  Once I need to introduce Windows into the mix, I"ll figure that one out.  

So, here it is, in the fewest words possible.  Installing Dr. Queue, the overview.
