failed for debain<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>hello,<BR><BR><BR>I have successfully built mpich2-1.1.1p1 in the
debain 64 bit system without error but I'm having the message "mpd failed:
gethostbyname_ex failed for debain" when i try to launch the mpd by executing
the command "mpd &". I read somewhere that I have to change something in
file /etc/hosts<BR>I followed the steps, but i'm still having the same
problem. The message now is "mpd failed: gethostbyname_ex failed for
localhost.localdomain".<BR><BR>Any
idea?<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
