Hi Daniel,

I am trying to run pvm on an NT cluster as well.  Look in the 
pvml.username file in the PVM_TMP directory (probably C:\TEMP).  I was 
getting the error 'PVM_ROOT not set'...  I added the environment variable 
(I thought they were no longer necessary!), and now can add hosts...  

Now I still have problems with re-adding hosts after a halt and re-start 
of the pvm console...
