Finally, it seems I'm able to run my program on a remote host. The problem was due to some firewall settings. Modifying the firewall ACCEPT policy as shown below, did the work. # /etc/init.d/ip6tables stop Resetting built-in chains to the default ACCEPT policy: [ OK ] # /etc/init.d/ipta

As Ralph suggested, I *reversed the order of my PATH settings*: This is what I it shows: $ echo $PATH /usr/local/openmpi-1.3.3/bin/:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin/:/usr/games:/usr/lib/qt4/bin:/usr/bin:/opt/kde3/bin $ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/openmpi-1.3.3/lib/ Moreover, I c

One thing that flags my attention. In your PATH definition, you put $PATH ahead of your OMPI 1.3.3 installation. Thus, if there are any system supplied versions of OMPI hanging around (and there often are), they will be executed instead of your new installation. You might try reversing that

Hi Souvik Also worth checking: 1) If you can ssh passwordless from ict1 to ict2 *and* vice versa. 2) If your /etc/hosts file on *both* machines list ict1 and ict2 and their IP addresses. 3) In case you have a /home directory on each machine (i.e. /home is not NFS mounted) if your .bashrc files o

Hi Souvik I would guess you only installed OpenMPI only on ict1, not on ict2. If that is the case you won't have the required OpenMPI libraries on ict:/usr/local, and the job won't run on ict2. I am guessing this, because you used a prefix under /usr/local, which tends to be a "per machine" dir

Dear all, Myself quite new to Open MPI. Recently, I had installed openmpi-1.3.3 separately on two of my machines ict1 and ict2. These machines are dual-socket quad-core (Intel Xeon E5410) i.e. each having 8 processors and are connected by Gigabit ethernet switch. As a prerequisite, I can ssh betwe
