Or you could apply a matte material to your objects (E.g. matte opacity "black hole") and that would give you just the fur rendered, NOt sure how that would work with volumetric lights though.

You'll find the plugin here.
As for the lights I'm not sure, sorry it's not something I've played with.

Over at Highend3D, you'll find some shaders to render out a separate z-depth pass. Maya's z-depth is 8-bit only, so it comes out aliased. With the mentioned shaders, you'll be able to render the depth info ito 16 bit image files.
Subdivide and conquer!
Free your mind, and your ass will follow!

Not correct. The Z-depth in maya is 16 bit. The reason ppl think it's 8-bit is that if you open an .iff file in photoshop (using the .iff plugin), it will crunch it to 8 bits and do some other nasty things to it too. Also the Z-depth is not supposed to be antialiased because that would cause incorrect depth info. The trick is to mask the z-depth with alpha...Originally posted by Renderizer
Hmmm...a little bit late, I guess...anyway:
