Hi Ralph
No, after the above error message mpirun has exited.

But i also noticed that it is to ssh into squid_0 and open a xterm there:

  jody@chefli ~/share/neander $ ssh -Y squid_0
  Last login: Wed Apr  6 17:14:02 CEST 2011 from chefli.uzh.ch on pts/0
  jody@squid_0 ~ $ xterm
  xterm Xt error: Can't open display:
  xterm:  DISPLAY is not set
  jody@squid_0 ~ $ export DISPLAY=130.60.126.74:0.0
  jody@squid_0 ~ $ xterm
  xterm Xt error: Can't open display: 130.60.126.74:0.0
  jody@squid_0 ~ $ export DISPLAY=chefli.uzh.ch:0.0
  jody@squid_0 ~ $ xterm
  xterm Xt error: Can't open display: chefli.uzh.ch:0.0
  jody@squid_0 ~ $ exit
  logout

same thing with ssh -X, but here i get the same warning/error message
as with mpirun:

  jody@chefli ~/share/neander $ ssh -X squid_0
  Warning: untrusted X11 forwarding setup failed: xauth key data not generated
  Warning: No xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11 forwarding.
  Last login: Wed Apr  6 17:12:31 CEST 2011 from chefli.uzh.ch on ssh

So perhaps the whole problem is linked to that xauth-thing.
Do you have a suggestion how this can be solved?

Thank You
  Jody
