Got it to work finally.  The longer line doesn't work.

But if I take off the -mca oob_tcp_if_include 192.168.0.0/16 part then
everything works from
every combination of machines I have.

And as to any MPI having trouble, in my original posting I stated that I
installed lam mpi
on the same hardware and it worked just fine.   Maybe you guys should look
at what they
do and copy it.   Virtually every machine I have used in the last 5 years
has multiple nic
interfaces and almost all of them are set up to use only 1 interface.   It
seems odd to have
a product that is designed to lash together multiple machines and have it
fail with default
install on generic machines.

  But software is like that some time and I want to thank you  much for all
the help.   Please
take my criticism with a grain of salt.   I love MPI, I just want to see it
work.   I have been
using it for 20 some years to synchronize multiple machines for I/O testing
and it is one
slick product for that.   It has helped us find many bugs in shared files
systems.  Thanks
again,
