I have a problem with using multicast for a FORTRAN application.

If I spawn three slaves using three separate spawn statements
I thereby assign tids(1), tids(2) and tids(3).

If I try to multicast to the three slaves with 3 for nproc and
tids for the tid array, it doesn't work. If I put 1 in for nproc
the command works; however, it only broadcasts to one slave.

So, the end result of all this is I can't use multicast. Does anyone
have any ideas???


Thanks!
