[mpich-discuss] Weird thing -- MPICH2 on domain

[Jayesh Krishna]

Hi,
 Can you try out the latest Windows version, 1.4.1p1, of MPICH2 (http://www.mpich.org/downloads/)?
 I don't remember when we changed the default channel on Windows from sock to nemesis. This could be the issue in your case. Please try the latest version available and let us know the results.

Regards,
Jayesh

Scott, 

With and without the wired connection, laptop has the same hostname, and desktop has the same hostname. But laptop and desktop have different hostnames. 

I am using mpich2-1.2.1-win-ia32.msi on both machines. Laptop is win7 64, and desktop is win7 32. 

Another issue is: When I use laptop from home, if I use 3 or less processors, for example "mpiexec -user 0 -np 3 test.exe", it works; however, if I use more than 3 processors, for example, "mpiexec -user 0 -np 4 test.exe", it fails, and the more processors I specified, the earlier I can see it fails. 

Best,

Is it a hostname issue? 

What is the hostname on both machines with and without the wired connection? 

What does hydra expect to use?
