Hi,

I am just starting to explore PVM. I have been trying to use the
"so=ms" option with
pvm but it does not seem to be working. My .xpvm_hosts file looks like
this:


godel  so=ms
&newton so=ms

And I start pvm on godel. After that when I try to add the other hosts
(newton),  it says


  0 successful
                    HOST     DTID
                  newton Can't start pvmd


What am I doing wrong ? Everything works fine if I use a .rhosts file.
But I do not want to
use that method as it is not very secure.

Manish
