Hi,

# How are you compiling your application (Compiler)?
# Can you run your application on a single VM with mpiexec (mpiexec -n 2 mympipgm.exe)?
# Can you run your application on a single VM without mpiexec (mpipgm.exe) ?

Hi,

yes having the same credentials on every VM works, thanks.
I'm having a different problem now. My, on a Win7 64 compiled, executable
won't run on the Virtual XP 64bit Machienes (VirtualBox).

I get the Error Message: "the executable ist not a valid Win32 application"

Since I complie my executable as 64bit and the VMs have XP 64bit it should
work? I'm I missing annything?

Regards,
Grischa
