Stand up, walk to the other machine and use its Taskmanager. Life is so
easy with Microsoft: "where do you want to walk today?";-)

There is no NT-Builtin-Solution for this, and I don't know if WinMPICH
has a special solution for this. However, we use a run-time environment
witth a daemon process on each machine which starts and stop processes.
Look for the soon-to-be-released binary release of SVMlib on 
http://www.lfbs.rwth-aachen.de .
