[OMPI users] Can't run with more than two nodes in the hostfile

I'm trying to update to openMPI 1.8.1 thru ssh and Myrinet running a command as /opt/openmpi/bin/mpirun --verbose --mca mtl mx --mca pml cm -hostfile hostfile -np 16 when the hostfile contain only two nodes as host1 slots=8 max-slots=8 host2 slots=8 max-slots=8 it runs perfectly but when the

Thank you for the fast answer While that resolve my problem with cross ssh authentication a command as /opt/openmpi/bin/mpirun --mca mtl mx --mca pml cm --mca plm_rsh_no_tree_spawn 1 -hostfile hostfile ompi_info just hung with no output and although there is a ssh connexion no orte program is
