I reran the configure script with the --with-tm flag this time. Thanks for the info. It was working before for clients with ssh properly configured (i.e. my account only). But now it is working without having to use ssh for all accounts (i.e. biologist and physicists users).

If you've got it working with ssh, that's fine. But the integration with torque can be better: - you can disable ssh for non-root accounts (assuming no other services need rsh/ssh) - users don't have to setup ssh keys to run MPI jobs (a small thing, but sometimes nice when the users aren't computer scientists) - torque knows about all processes on all nodes (not just the mother superior) and can therefore both track and kill them if necessary Just my $0.02... -- Jeff Squyres Cisco Systems _______________________________________________ users mailing list us...@open-mpi.org http://www.open-mpi.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/users
