Dear all,

Parallel execution of 'gamess' give the output which is given below. I
guess that this is due to some internal firewall of ubuntu because I am
using a separate switch with no Internet connection. could you please let
me know how to overcome this problem.
which command about iptables should I run on master and other nodes.
As I am first time preparing the cluster so guide me about the running the
cluster, from which node should I start my job, master or some other nodes.

with regards
yours sincerely

Haider Abbas

 ddikick.x: Timed out while waiting for DDI processes to check in.
 ddikick.x: Fatal error detected.
 The error is most likely to be in the application, so check for
 input errors, disk space, memory needs, application bugs, etc.
 ddikick.x will now clean up all processes, and exit...
