Hi Jeff,
I'm trying to install openmpi under cygwin on windows vista, 32 bit version.
It's very difficult to build Open MPI under cygwin, there was a thread
talking about this before. See:
http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/users/2008/11/7294.php
Is there a version of openmpi that works under cygwin on windows vista?
It should work, but the build process is complex and time consuming. I
wouldn't recommend it.
Is there a version of openmpi that works under windows vista in some
other environment?
Yes, with CMake and Visual Studio.
If the answer to either of these is yes, is there a set of
instructions that applies to this isntallation?
Please check the wiki page with detailed instructions of using it :
https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/wiki/WindowsPort#HowtobuildOpenMPIonWindowsusingCMake
Does openmpi require cygserver?
If build with CMake, it doesn't use SSH or RSH for launching remote
process, so cygserver is not necessary.
Does cygserver work under windows vista?
I don't know about this. Sorry.
Hope this would help.
Best Regards,
Shiqing
