Hi Jayesh,

My configuration is very similar to the Tina's (user in this ticket).
I have 4 machines
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU
Q6600 @ 2.40GHz
8 GB of RAM
running
Microsoft Windows XP
Professional x64 Edition
Version 2003
Service Pack 2
over a Gigabit Network

I run mpiexec with the following command:

>> mpiexec.exe -configfile myconfigfile.txt

myconfigfile.txt:
-map j:\\computer1\paralell -n 1 -host computer1 -wdir j:\ j:\master
-map j:\\computer1\paralell -n 4 -host computer1 -wdir j:\ j:\slave
-map j:\\computer1\paralell -n 4 -host computer2 -wdir j:\ j:\slave
-map j:\\computer1\paralell -n 4 -host computer3 -wdir j:\ j:\slave
-map j:\\computer1\paralell -n 4 -host computer4 -wdir j:\ j:\slave

And the error I get is:
*********** Warning ************
