hi,

i would like to ask for inputs on the following:

i plan on doing some work an a workstation cluster consisting
of sun sparc ultras and dec alphastations.
i would like to use lammpi.

i already installed lammpi for solaris, now i would like to add an osf1
(du4.0b) installation to it.
(i know that pvm takes care of multiple platforms itself).
i was wondering whether lammpi has features that support such an
undertaking (i looked through the documentation but did not find
anything - perhaps i did not search hard enough).

should i create a bin directory for each architecture and take care of
things that way?

any suggestions/inputs greatly appreciated.

thank you very much.

hans
