MPI

[Alex Merritt]

It's working and the causes lie with incomplete environment configuration:

1. a hostname must be configured in /etc/rc.conf, then execute 'hostname'
to set it immediately
2. ktrace shows the file ~/.mpd.conf must exist. I copied this from
/usr/local/etc/mpd.conf
3. this file needs permissions 600
4. command mpd must be run in another terminal

I had not set a host name because I use this as a kernel hacking system,
but 2-4 were specific to MPICH.

Refer to I.8 and I.9 in this document

http://www.mpich.org/static/downloads/1.2.1p1/mpich2-1.2.1p1-README.txt

Upon installation of mpich I am only urged to change the password in
/usr/local/etc/mpd.conf.
