Thanks to Thomas, Steve, Uwe, and others for reporting the problem and
suggesting fixes. A new version of snow is on its way to CRAN that

Folks,
I guess I know what is going on (and why I haven't seen this so far):
All of you have installed R in a directory with blanks in it, right?

btw, I installed R.10.1 on the same box (Windows 7, 64bit, 4 cores).
snow/snowfall work fine.
here is my sessionInfo()

Same problem as Anna here.
Windows 7 64-bit. Running R 2.13.0. snow + snowfall installed.
Testing:
library(snow)
library(snowfall)
sfInit(parallel=TRUE, cpus=2, type="SOCK")
Then R spins forever (yes, I disabled the Windows firewall).
On the same box, tried the same on Ubuntu under Virtualbox

Dear users,
I want to set up R to use one R-script directory and one R-library (directory
for packages) for many end-users. I try to do this by using one network-share.
