Hi David, Thanks for your answer. I am aware of this possibility, I was just wondering if it is possible to do it directly using the connection settings. During testing, I typically frequently crash (and restart) the pvserver with different numbers of ranks in short succession, and using a reverse job script in each case is quite inefficient.

Here the qsub script tells the server what ip address and port number to connect back to. If the waiting client isn't running on the login node, set up an ssh tunnel back to the user's machine.

However, in each instance it is necessary to specify the server address manually, as the server address naturally changes depending on which node the cluster job is located. Is there a way to also make the server address (as opposed to just e.g. the port number) configurable, similar to Use Case Two at http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView:Server_Configuration? Right now I have a static configuration where I always manually change the host name before connecting, which is somewhat cumbersome.
