[mpich-discuss] SMPD passphrase?

Tue Jun 7 08:25:17 CDT 2011

Hello Dave:

Operating System: Windows 7
Terminal emulator: Red Hat Cygwin
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E7500 @ 2.93 GHz
MPICH2 Version: mpich2-1.3.2p1
Shell: bash

As recommended in the previous e-mails, I built the mpich2 library using the following commands:

$ ./configure --prefix=/home/<USERNAME>/mpich2-install-smpd  --with-pm=smpd  --with-pmi=smpd  2>&1 | tee c.txt
$ make 2>&1 | tee m.txt
$ make install 2>&1 | tee mi.txt 

The installation seemed successful. I tried running the example file cpi and I was prompted for an authentication passphrase: 
$ mpiexec -n 1 ./cpi
Please specify an authentication passphrase for smpd:

Is there such a passphrase that I need to know?
Thank you very much for your help,
José

Thank you, Dave, I will give it a try.

Add "--with-pm=smpd" to your configure command.  You might also need to add "--with-pmi=smpd" to get everything working in the end; I can't remember if that's necessary or if it's handled automatically for you.
