I was thinking like a SysAdmin, not a developer. I've had plenty of experiences where nodes aren't communicating b/c someone hosed up the machines file, .rhosts file, and other stuff like that. I guess it's not really relevant if your focusing only on developing an MPI app, not not administering a cluster. -- Prentice PS - I just realized who I was talking to. Thanks for the articles on parallel filesystems. Very good. I read them all. _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
