firewall first, you have to unblock the smpd service port. Beyond that,
you have to verify that smpd service is installed, and if it's
another host, you will either have to register a pass phrase, or your account on
the execution node to be able to continue. If your password ever changes,
you have to re-perform this step.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal>I've debugged as far as I can:<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Invoking the command: mpiexec -validate -host myhost
returns:<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Aborting: connection to smpd rejected<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Invoking mpiexec -file myfile returns:<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Aborting: unable to connect to myhost<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Some background.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<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>
