<DIV></DIV>The test command suggested (mpiexec -n 2 hostname) works fine on one
of the machines. On the other machine (both are winXP) I get the
error:<BR><BR>Credentials for thomas rejected connecting to mb13<BR>Aborting:
Unable to connect to mb13<BR><BR>This is the result of just running locally, not
over a network! In answer to the previous question, 'thomas' is not a
domain user. This is just two winXP machines on a local network that are
part of the same "workgroup" but neither are part of any domain. <BR><BR>I
wonder if this has to do with my having changed the machine name on mb13 ... but
I have since completely uninstalled and installed mpich2. I left the
default phrase "behappy" during this installation. I then ran wmpiregister
and entered my username and password (which I use to login to each machine
sucessfully).<BR><BR>I have tried to play with wmpiconfig, but it is a little
difficult to understand how to use this. I don't find any documentation
for it.<BR><BR>Thanks very much for any help....<BR><BR>-thomas blom, austin

mpich2 1.0.8 on windows - domain required?<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=Wj3C7c>
<DIV></DIV>Hello,<BR><BR>I have just subscribed to the list to ask a question
about mpich2 on windows. (I found the archives but don't see a way to
search them).<BR><BR>Is it a requirement that the windows computers
participating in mpich2 be part of a windows domain? I see things in the
documentation that perhaps imply this, but not state it outright.<BR><BR>My
computers are simply on a local network, and part of a "workgroup". The
smpd process manager can "see" the other systems to some extent, since the
result of<BR><BR>smpd -status mb13 // mb13 is the hostname
of my other windows pc<BR><BR>correctly finds that smpd is running on my other
host. But executing mpiexec and providing hostnames in a "machinefile"
e.g.<BR><BR>mpiexec -n 4 -machinefile machines echo
%COMPUTERNAME%<BR><BR>fails with:<BR><BR>Credentials for thomas rejected
connecting to mb13<BR><BR><BR>I have taken care that the username/pass is
identical on each machine, the user is admin, etc. I have followed steps
I've found in various documents about uninstalling/installing smpd and
providing the identical passphrase on each, running mpiexec -register,
etc...<BR><BR>Any ideas? (Or is it just that I must be running on a
domain, which I cannot find concrete documentation about)<BR><BR>thanks very
much, <BR>thomas blom in austin,
