Hopefully someone can help me with this as I am a PVM3 newbie. :)

I'm trying to run CHARMM through PVM3 on one machine with multiple
processors.  Seeing how PVM starts up a separate executable per
requested instance, I was hoping I could take advantage of the four
processors I have on my Origin 200 and not have to do any networking
between boxes.  I haven't been able to get this to work as PVMd doesn't
want to start more than one process per machine.  I don't have root
access to try and add some virtual interfaces to trick PVM.  Can I do
what I want with PVM3?  Thanks in advance. :)  Reply by email if
possible.
