Project folders change on workstations used for distributed rendering

[Alex_M]

There's a problem which I suspect is caused by Vray. When a workstation is used in distributed rendering, the project folder gets changed to that of the rendered job. This is pretty annoying and potentially dangerous because my autoback files start getting saved in the project folder of the rendered job and when Max crashes I don't know where to find the backups since the project folder was changed.

Am I the only one that's experiencing this problem? Any way to avoid it?
