Hello everyone, I've been fiddling around with the snow and Rmpi packages on my new Intel Mac, and have run into a few problems. When I make a cluster on my machine, both slaves start up just fine, and everything works as expected. When I try to make a cluster including another networked machine it hangs. I've followed the suggestions at http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/Rhelp02a/archive/83086.html and http://www.stat.uiowa.edu/~luke/R/cluster/cluster.html but to no avail. Everything seems to start up fine using lamboot, but then hangs when making the cluster in R. Making a cluster with 2 slaves seems to work fine, but if I increase the number (to use the networked machines) it hangs again.
I've tried networking to another Mac, and also to a machine running Red Hat Linux. Both machines can set up their own local clusters. Does anyone have any ideas?
