<p class=MsoNormal>All computers are running Vista Ultimate. The
computers are connected by a 100mbs LAN. A few months ago, I set up 4
machines for this use. They all still connect without issue.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>At this point I need to add some more, but am getting these
errors. All machines have smpd version 1.0.8. I am an administrator
on all machines, and installed Mpich2 as the administrator. UAC was
turned off and remains off, all known firewalls are also off. A path
variable to the bin directory was added.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I ran smpd -d and all of the parameters match those of the
working computers.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>What am I missing here? I appreciate your valuable
time.<o:p></o:p></p>
