Hi Ralph,
Thanks for your quick response. I am using ssh without a passphrase, so there was no need to start ssh-agent (ssh works as you can see from the email I sent to George a little while ago . cc'd to users). Anyway, I installed ssh-agent as you suggested in case ompi/orte accessed it, but it made no difference. Please let me know if you have any other thoughts.

Check out the OpenSSH config options to see if something fits. I did a quick search and found this, as an example: http://mah.everybody.org/docs/ssh Note the need to run ssh-agent to cache login credentials.

I have gone through the FAQs and have rebuilt the windows version but can't seem to get past this.
