In V-Ray for SketchUp, the easiest way to set the license settings is either through the installer at the time of of installation, or directly set a vrclient vrclient.xml file.  AlternativelyAlternatively, the setvrlservice program can be used. It is located in in /Applications/ChaosGroup/V-Ray/V-Ray\ for\ SketchUp/extension/tools/ .

In V-Ray for Maya, the setvrlservice program is located in /Applications/ChaosGroup/V-Ray/Mayannnn/VRay.app/Contents/MacOS .

For all other host applications, it is found either in /Applications/ChaosGroup/V-Ray/[host app]/bin/ or /Applications/[path to host app]/vray/bin/ directory (the path may differ depending on the host application that V-Ray is installed for). Run setvrlservice and use the -server=[server name or IP] and -port=[port number] options to change your license settings, where [server name or IP] is the IP address or name of the machine where the License Server is running without the enclosing '[' and ']' characters. The default port number is 30304. For V-Ray 6, the port number is followed by {{}}.
