Ralph, Thanks for the response !
If I substitute the output from `hostname` (Chucks-iMac.local) I get the same behavior, but using `hostname -s` (Chucks-iMac) all is well. So, to summarize: Fails: mpirun -host localhost -np 1 java -version mpirun -host `hostname` -np 1 java -version Succeeds: mpirun -host `hostname -s` -np 1 java -version At least I have a fix for now !

It isn't recognizing the word "localhost" as being your local host. I'll take a look at it. Thanks!
