The following lines need to be added to your .bashrc in the NCCA linux labs to get renderman to work
export RMANTREE=/opt/pixar/RenderManProServer-21.4/
export RMAN_SHADERPATH=$HOME/Shaders:$RMANTREE/lib/shaders
export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:$RMANTREE/bin
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$RMANTREE/lib:
export PATH=$PATH:$RMANTREE/bin
The following folders contain examples for my Renderman lectures. Note I'm in the process of updating these lectures to work with Renderman 21 and RIS so some of the content at present will not work.
