many different connections.

Alternatively if you want to connect many clients to one server then you
are looking at a multi-client configuration. I'm guessing this is what you
are looking to do. This will not work by current design because the PV cave
mode works on the server side .

To have the current collaboration framework to work with the CAVE mode we
would have to handle cave stuff at the client side instead of the server. I
have been working on something in my spare time to make this possible but
it'll be some time till that is done.
