Please keep the discussion on list.

I followed the instructions in the May 17 e-mail from Brian Wylie.

I found it easiest to set up the keyframe animation on my workstation,
with surface rendered low resolution polydata. Then I deleted the
polydata and loaded low resolution unstructured grid data. I saved a
paraview session and edited the session file to use the high resolution
unstructured grid file on the cluster. I started pvclient on my
workstation, and the pvserver on the cluster. I loaded the session,
changed the rendering of the unstructured grid to volume rendering, and
saved the animation.
