 Hi !
 I have already be able to start pvmd on my NT workstation by the following
   method:
 1. add "host dx=... lo=login so=pw"   from pvm console.
 2. edit a hostfile, then start pvmd3 directly.

 Now I need to add hosts dynamically, so I add the function to my
 program:
   int info = pvm_addhosts(add_pvm_hosts_list, 1, infos);

 It can work correctly on my SGI Indy(Iris5.3), but cat not work at my NT
 workstation 4.0(PVM Win32). The error message is :
   libpvm [pid64]: mksocs() socket: Bad file descriptor
   libpvm [pid64]: mksocs() socket: Bad file descriptor
   libpvm [pid64]: mksocs() socket: Bad file descriptor
   libpvm [pid64]: pvm_addhosts(): Can't contact local daemon
   info = -14  local pvmd is not responding. (Message print out by program.)

 I don't know what it means!
 Does anybody know how to solve it ?
