Sounds good to me. :-)

Yup, looks like that's it; it fails to launch with that..

An attempt to set processor affinity has failed - please check to
ensure that your system supports such functionality. If so, then
this is probably something that should be reported to the OMPI developers.

mpiexec was unable to start the specified application as it encountered an error
on node tango095.vpac.org. More information may be available above.

4 total processes failed to start


This is most likely because it's getting an error from the
kernel when trying to bind to a socket it's not permitted
to access.

cheers,
