<DIV></DIV>Hi all, <BR><BR>I have installed MPICH2 in a shared folder outside
home dir.<BR><BR>And i shared this folder with other 6 computers in a
cluster.<BR><BR>Well, when i try to run mpdboot it doesnt work for more than 2
PCS.<BR><BR>When i try mpdboot -n 2 -f <hosts file> it performs ok,
however when i try with 3 PCS or more i doesnt works and record an error
message like this following message :<BR style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"><BR
style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"><SPAN style="FONT-STYLE: italic"><SPAN
style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">mpdboot_computer1 (handle_mpd_output 374): failed to
ping mpd on computer1; recvd output={}</SPAN><BR><BR></SPAN>It is strange
because with 2 PCS, this one computer1 works, and now with 3 it doesnt work
anymore. <BR><BR>Furthermore, i touch and set permission to .mpd.conf files in
every node of the cluster, and i set the secretwork too..<BR><BR>What is going
on with MPDBOOT?<BR><BR>Thanks in Advance, <BR><SPAN
