With 3ds max 6 you only have a mental ray license for up to 2 processors on a single machine. If you want network render you have to pay for additional machine licenses of mental ray.
The brazil renderer is similair where you have to buy more licenses to render on more machines.
Vray and I believe Final Render give you free network rendering with their rendering plugins.

This versus the unlimited number of machines for the default scanline renderer for one license.
Whats going on here?
or are they talking about something called distributed bucket rendering, a different topic altogether?
