[mpich-discuss] mpdboot fails

[Robert Kubrick]

mpdboot fails when I try to run with this command:

# mpdboot --totalnum=2 --verbose -d               debug: starting
running mpdallexit on iMac.local
LAUNCHED mpd on iMac.local  via

debug: mpd on iMac.local  on port 61785
RUNNING: mpd on iMac.local
debug: info for running mpd: {'ncpus': 1, 'list_port': 61785,

mpdboot_iMac.local (handle_mpd_output 406): from mpd on wlaptop,

The path to mpd on 'wlaptop' is actually a different one than on  
iMac.local. How can I specify a different remote path for mpd?
