Network Rendering questions

Hey there,

I've got some network rendering questions.

I want to render 2 jobs parallel. I am using a Network Manager floating licence.
I want to assign 5 slaves to each job/master.
How do i set up the 2 masters exactly? With preferences and commandline commands.

Could you please explain it to me as precisely as possible?
Thank you very much in advance!

Are the two render masters going to be running on the same machine?

No! At the moment, the network licence Manager runs on machine "z", the one master if possible on machine A, and the second on machine B.
I tried set it up by starting each master on a different port, and each 5 slaves listening to that port and network master name... but it didn't work. When starting the master B, all slaves formerly connected to master A switch to master B.

I used the following command lines with an alias of indigo render client exe:
xxx.exe -n s -h masterAhostname:port1
Indigo.exe -n wm -h masterAhostname:port1
... and so on.
I think that is not correct...
What do I have to set in the network options of indigo GUI on master A?

Thank you!!
