We've just 'Upgraded' (ha!) to Max 2009.
Opening 3dsMax 9 and setting up a simple test scene of teapots, then doing a DR render (on the slave machines spawners registered as services for both max9 and max2009) produces vray to launch the 2009 verisons:
From the logs:
Scene loaded from "C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Local Settings\Application Data\Autodesk\3dsmax\2009 - 64bit\enu\temp\vray_server_scene_1.max"
even though this is a max 9 file.

If we kill the 2009 spawners, so on the host Max 9 is running, and on the slaves max 9 spawner is running - DR fails. we get:
warning: Could not connect to host 10.0.5.250: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
Any help will be most appreciated. Vlado - can send you all the logs if you need.
Many Thanks.
