I'm setting up a render farm using Amazon EC2. I own two VRay slave licenses. I can't figure out how to configure the license inside of 3DS Max so that VRay and find my license server on my main machine in my office. Anyone know how to do this?

The licensing of the render nodes in a cloud render farm requires an access over TCP/IP to the machine where the dongle will be plugged in. This means that the render nodes should access the outside network or at least the machine where the dongle is plugged in. You need to grant the access to the external IP address of the machine with the dongle, to carry out the communication between the virtual render nodes and V-Ray license server.
To do this you need to verify the following:
On the machine with the dongle make sure that the port where V-Ray license server is running (by default it is 30304) is open and not blocked for access by the Amazon virtual instances.
On the render nodes you should configure V-Ray license server settings as it is shown in the help here:
