Tomislav, As is probably apparent from my email(s), I am very new to all of this as well. >From my understanding, to start the server on cloud3 from my machine (daviddoria), you must use the command ssh cloud3 mpirun pvserver If you use simply mpirun pvserver that will start the server on daviddoria.
